The Latin Grammy Award for Best Portuguese Language Album is an honor presented annually at the Latin Grammy Awards, a ceremony that recognizes excellence and creates a wider awareness of the cultural diversity and contributions of Latin recording artists in the United States and internationally.

According to the category description guide for the 13th Latin Grammy Awards, the award is for vocal or instrumental Portuguese Language Roots albums containing at least 51% playing time of newly recorded material. For Solo artists, duos or groups.

The category was first presented as Best Brazilian Roots/Regional Album. In 2009 the category was divided in Best Native Brazilian Roots Album and Best Tropical Brazilian Roots Album, with the latter being discontinued the following year. The former category continued until 2012 when it was renamed into Best Brazilian Roots Album. The category was changed to its current name in 2018.

In 2001, As Canções de Eu Tu Eles by Gilberto Gil became the first album to win this award and to be nominated for Album of the Year. Gilberto Gil and Renato Teixeira hold the record of most wins in the category with three wins each. Teixeira has won in collaboration with Sérgio Reis in 2015 and alongside Almir Sater in 2016 and 2018.
