The United Liberal Party (Spanish: Partido Liberal Unido, PLU) was a Chilean liberal political party which existed between 1930 and 1933.
It was the product of the union of Liberal Party, the Independent Liberal Party, Liberal Democratic Aliancist Party and the Liberal Democratic Unionist Party.
The supporters of Arturo Alessandri weren't included. It was a party related to Carlos Ibáñez del Campo. As time went by, its members split up to form other parties. With the downfall of Ibáñez all groups gathered up again, led by Alessandri to create the Liberal Party (October 1930) with a mutual party platform. In this process, the ULP merged into the LP during the VI Convention (October 1933) of the LP.
