Legislative elections were held in French Polynesia on 3 November 1957 for the Territorial Assembly.

[1] The result was a victory for the ruling Democratic Rally of the Tahitian People (RDPT) led by Pouvanaa a Oopa,[2] which won 17 of the 30 seats.

A new government was formed later in the month,[1] including Walter Grand who had lost heavily in the Windward Islands constituency running on the France Tahiti list.

[3] However, following protests about an income tax law, the government was sacked by Governor Camille Victor Bailly in April 1958.

[4] Following the death of Tautu Oopa in 1961, his wife Céline won a by-election on 8 October 1961, becoming the first woman to sit in the Assembly.
