The Camarines Norte Provincial Board is the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (provincial legislature) of the Philippine province of Camarines Norte.

The members are elected via plurality-at-large voting: the province is divided into four districts, the first and fourth districts sending three members to the provincial board, while the second and third send two members; the number of candidates the electorate votes for and the number of winning candidates depends on the number of members their district sends. The vice governor is the ex officio presiding officer, and only votes to break ties. The vice governor is elected via the plurality voting system province-wide.

Beginning in 2010, the districts used in appropriation of members is coextensive with the legislative districts of Camarines Norte. Prior to 2010 when the province was just one congressional district, the Commission on Elections divided the province into two provincial board districts.
