The Vila do Corvo Municipal Chamber (Portuguese: Câmara Municipal de Vila do Corvo) is the administrative authority in the Azorean municipality of Vila do Corvo. It has exercised its authority over the whole of Corvo Island, the smallest island in the Azores archipelago, since 1832, when the settlement on Corvo Island called Nossa Senhora dos Milagres was elevated to the category of town and given an independent town council. On the same date, the town was renamed Vila do Corvo.
Throughout history, this municipality has suffered some changes, such as in 1895, when, by virtue of a Decree dated 18 November 1895, the Municipality of Corvo was abolished. In 1898, again by a Decree, this time dated 13 January 1898, it was re-established.
