County Clare was a constituency representing County Clare in the Irish House of Commons, the lower house in the Parliament of the Kingdom of Ireland. It returned two members to the Parliament of Ireland from 1613 to 1800.

In the Patriot Parliament of 1689 summoned by James II, Clare was represented with two members.[1]

Following the Acts of Union 1800, it was succeeded by the County Clare constituency in the United Kingdom House of Commons.
