Andrei Dmitriyevich Deputat (Russian: Андрей Дмитриевич Депутат; born 20 December 1992) is a pair skater who has represented Russia internationally since 2012. With former partner Vasilisa Davankova, he is the 2012 World Junior bronze medalist, the 2012–13 JGP Final silver medalist, and the 2012 Russian Junior champion. He later competed with Vera Bazarova.

Deputat was born on 20 December 1992 in Kiev, Ukraine. He moved to Moscow, Russia, in early 2010. He married Russian ice dancer Ekaterina Bobrova on 16 July 2016 in Moscow.

Deputat's mother, a recreational skater, introduced him to skating at age two years and eight months. He switched from singles to pair skating at age 15 and competed for two seasons with Vladyslava Rybka. They represented Ukraine and were coached by Galina Kukhar in Kiev. In the summer of 2009, they spent some time training in Ashburn, Virginia with Rashid Kadyrkaev and competed at the Liberty Summer Competition in Aston, Pennsylvania where they won the silver medal. They were ineligible for the 2009–10 ISU Junior Grand Prix series because Rybka turned 12 at the end of July 2009 and they parted ways soon after.

Unable to find him a suitable partner in Ukraine, Kukhar recommended that Deputat move to Moscow. Arriving in Russia in early 2010, Deputat joined Sergei Dobroskokov's group and had a brief partnership with Polina Safronova.
