The 2000 Puerto Rico Republican presidential primary was held on February 27, 2000, as part of the Republican Party primaries for the 2000 presidential election. 14 delegates to the Republican National Convention were allocated to presidential candidates.

Although Puerto Rico would not participate in the 2000 presidential general election because it is a U.S. territory and not a state, it equally participated in the U.S. presidential caucuses and primaries.[1]
