Miss Puerto Rico is a national title bestowed on the women representing Puerto Rico in international beauty pageants.

Although an American territory, Puerto Rico participates in international sports competitions and beauty pageants under the flag of Puerto Rico as an entity separate from the United States. As in the Olympic Games since 1948 and the Pan American Games since 1955, it has competed independently in beauty pageants since 1952, when its representative first debuted in Miss Universe as Miss Puerto Rico.^{[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]}

In 1987, Puerto Rico became the ninth nation to win Miss World, Miss Universe and Miss International, the oldest pageants. In 2019, it won Miss Earth, becoming the fourth nation to win the major Big Four pageants aforementioned. In 2019, having previously won Miss Supranational and Miss Grand International, the contests constituting the six Grand Slam pageants together with the Big Four,^{[17][18][19][20][21][22]} and Miss Intercontinental, the oldest minor pageant, it also became the first nation—and only one as of 2024—to have at least one winner in said seven pageants.

With 17 combined wins in the aforementioned groups of pageants as of 2024, Puerto Rico is considered a powerhouse in the industry of beauty pageants.^[23][24] It is the fourth nation globally with the most combined wins in these groups except in the Grand Slam, where it is the fifth nation globally. It is also the second Ibero-American nation with the most combined wins in these groups.

Beauty pageants are a part of the culture of Puerto Rico.^[11] The businesswoman in the modeling and beauty industry in charge of many Puerto Rican representatives competing internationally between 1952 and 1998, Anna Santisteban, popularly known as the Hacedora de Reinas (Maker of Queens), is often recognized as the most influential promoter of pageants in the archipelago. As the holder of the Miss Universe franchise in Puerto Rico, Santisteban produced three international winners: 1970, 1985 and 1993.^{[25][26][27][28]}

In its various forms, the Miss Puerto Rico beauty pageant has been held almost every year since the 1930s.^[31] The winner of the contest represents Puerto Rico at the Miss Universe pageant each year.

The selection of Miss Universe Puerto Rico commences the year before the winner advances to participate in the Miss Universe pageant. Each Puerto Rican municipality may choose a representative who then enters the Miss Puerto Rico finals, traditionally held at a San Juan area hotel. The winner is crowned at the conclusion of the final competition.

There have been several changes to the pageant's ownership and name. Miss Puerto Rico was held from 1952 until 1998 under the direction of Anna Santisteban. From 1996 to 1998, Telemundo organized the contest under the name Miss Universe Puerto Rico. From 1999 to 2002, TeleOnce (now Univision Puerto Rico) obtained the franchise, renaming it Miss Puerto Rico Universe. Magali Febles organized the pageant between 2003 and 2009 and the pageant title remained the same. In 2009, Luisito Vigoreaux and Desireé Lowry obtained the franchise and renamed the pageant Miss Universe Puerto Rico. In 2018, WAPA-TV obtained ownership of the franchise, keeping the name of Miss Universe Puerto Rico and hiring Denise Quiñones as the pageant's director. In 2022, host, motivational speaker, Miss Puerto Rico Petite 2000 (national title), and Miss Global Petite 2000 (international title), Yizette Cifredo Hernández, became the new national director of the pageant.

Puerto Rico has held the following Miss Universe editions:

Year	Pageant	Location	Venue
1972	Miss Universe	Dorado, Puerto Rico	Cerromar Beach Hotel
2001		Bayamón, Puerto Rico	Coliseo Rubén Rodríguez
2002		San Juan, Puerto Rico	Roberto Clemente Coliseum

In 1972, Puerto Rico became the first area outside the contiguous United States and first nation in Latin America to host Miss Universe. In 2001, Puerto Rico became the first participating nation—and only one as of 2024—to win the international title of Miss Universe as a host.

As of 2024, the following nations, in order of number of finalists and semifinalists, have placed more times in the final night of the competition:

Puerto Rico debuted in Miss World in 1959, then it was absent from 1960 to 1969. In 1970, a new organization took the responsibility of sending contestants until 1985 via castings. Puerto Rico did not compete in Miss World from 1986 to 1988. The Miss Puerto Rico organization, directed by Anna Santisteban, obtained the Miss World franchise in 1989, with Tania Collazo as her first Miss World delegate. Santisteban produced Miss World Puerto Rico until 1995.

In 1996, Delia Cruz, mother of Miss World Wilnelia Merced, Lady Forsyth-Johnson, obtained the franchise and began organizing the Miss Mundo Puerto Rico pageant with Tania Collazo as organizer for a few years before Desiree Lowry, and later on Shanira Blanco.^[32][33][34] Currently, the pageant is presided by Wilnelia Merced and directed by Ana Esther Avilés.^[35][36]

Miss World 2021 was held in Puerto Rico in the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum.^[37]

This contest is considered the third most important female beauty event in the world. The Miss Puerto Rico pageant had the rights to this franchise from 1960 to 1997. Then, from 1998 to 2003, the Miss Puerto Rico Tourism pageant, led by Jorge Manrique, and later by former Miss Puerto Rico Tourism and Miss World Puerto Rico Tania Collazo. In 2004, the new Bellezas del Turismo (Tourism Beauties) pageant, also directed by Tania Collazo, obtained the rights until 2006. From 2007 to 2015, the firm Creative Options Inc. chaired by Fernando Oquendo Vega, was in charged of the franchise, which was directed for a while by Desireé Del Río De Jesús, Miss International Puerto Rico 2011.^[38]

Currently, Nuestra Belleza Puerto Rico (Our Beauty Puerto Rico) organization chaired by Miguel R. Deliz has ownership of the franchise with Miss Supranational Puerto Rico, and Miss Grand Puerto Rico, and Miss Charm Puerto Rico.^[39][40]

  Valerie Hernández, Miss International Puerto Rico 2014 and Miss International 2014

The Miss Puerto Rico Universe organization sent representatives to Miss Earth between 2001 and 2004 under Magaly Febles. From 2005 to 2013, Puerto Rico's representative to Miss Earth was selected through the Miss Puerto Rico Earth pageant. Under the direction of Shanira Blanco in 2014, the representative was selected through the Miss Mundo Puerto Rico pageant with the 1st Runner-Up being sent to Miss Earth. In 2018, Vanessa de Roide and Joe Amhed took control of the franchise.^[41] Currently, Amhed is the sole national director of Miss Earth Puerto Rico.^[42]

Puerto Rico conquered the crown of Miss Earth with Nellys Pimentel in 2019. In winning, Puerto Rico became one of only five countries to win the four most recognized pageants of Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss International and Miss Earth. Puerto Rico also became the first—and the only country as of 2024—to win the six most important beauty international competitions: Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss International, Miss Earth, Miss Supranational, and Miss Grand International.

  Valeria Vázquez Latorre, Miss Supranational Puerto Rico 2018 and Miss Supranational 2018

Miss Grand International Puerto Rico is the title of the female beauty contest in Puerto Rico created since 2013 to compete at Miss Grand International. The winner of the title carries it for a period of about a year, and they give meaning and importance to this beauty competition by promoting a stop to war and violence, a campaign which is the slogan of the pageant. The Miss Grand International candidate from Puerto Rico is chosen at the Nuestra Belleza Puerto Rico (Our Beauty Puerto Rico) national beauty pageant.

The first Puerto Rican delegate to win the international title of Miss Grand International was Janelee Chaparro in 2013 at the pageant's first edition.

In 2023, there were two candidates of full Puerto Rican descent participating: Cristina Ramos of Puerto Rico, who finished in the top 20, and Sthephanie Miranda of United States of America, who finished as 3rd runner-up.

Puerto Rico consecutively placed in the first 11 editions of the pageant from 2013 to 2023. As of 2024, Puerto Rico and Thailand have the most placements, as they are the only two nations to have failed to place only once. Puerto Rico was unplaced in the 2024 edition and Thailand in the 2021 edition.

As of 2024, Puerto Rico has produced the following placements:

Currently, a pageant is not being held to choose the representative of Puerto Rico for Miss Intercontinental. The delegate is chosen from the group of finalists in Miss World Puerto Rico and prepared by the Miss World Puerto Rico organization, which is presided by Miss World 1975, Wilnelia Merced Forsyth, and directed by Ana Esther Avilés.

Puerto Rico has won Miss Intercontinental five times in 1986, 1991, 2010, 2016, and 2024, but the current organization of the pageant only recognizes four winners. Miss Intercontinental does not include Puerto Rico's 1991 win in their official archive.

Miss Intercontinental was held twice in 1991. Carmen Lynda Díaz from Puerto Rico won the first edition held in Lagos, Nigeria by Nigerian owners of the pageant, Silverbird Productions, which held the franchise from 1986 to 1991, and Elena Ivanova from Russia won the second edition held in Bonn, Germany by organizers working under the direction of the new owners of the pageant, a company from Germany, which held the competition in Europe from 1991 to 2003. Despite not being included in the official archive of the pageant by the current owners, Puerto Rico irrefutably won the first edition of 1991 in Nigeria, thus achieving its second Miss Intercontinental crown.^{[45][46][47][48][49]}

Having produced five winners as of 2024, Puerto Rico is the country with the most crowns, along Venezuela and United States, which have 5 winners each.

Since it began to be awarded in 2008, Puerto Rico is the country with the most Miss North America titles, winning it seven times as of 2024.

As of 2024, Puerto Rico has produced the following placements:
