The 2000 congressional elections in Maryland were held on November 7, 2000, to determine the persons representing the state of Maryland in the United States House of Representatives.

Representatives were elected for two-year terms; those elected in 2000 served in the 107th Congress from January 3, 2001, until January 3, 2003.
