The Democratic Liberal Party of Armenia (ADLA; Armenian: Հայաստանի Ռամկավար Ազատական Կուսակցություն, romanized: Hayastani Ramgavar Azatakan Kusaktsutyun), was an Armenian political party established following the declaration of State Sovereignty of Armenia in July 1991. The party launched unification talks with the Armenakan-Democratic Liberal Party on 1 December 2011. On 3 June 2012, the general assembly of the party approved the unification and dissolving of the party into the new unified political party named Democratic Liberal Party (Armenian: Ռամկավար Ազատական Կուսակցություն (Հայաստան) ՌԱԿ (Հայաստան)) (ADLA).

The ADLA should not be confused with the historical Armenian Democratic Liberal Party (ADL) also known as the Ramgavar Party, which is a powerful long-standing Armenian party in the Armenian diaspora established in 1885 by Mekertich Portukalian under the name Armenakan Party and later named Democratic Liberal Party (ADL), although there were alliances between the ADL and ADLA parties.
