NA-252 (Karachi-XIV) (Urdu: این اے-۲۵۲، کراچی-۱۴) was a constituency for the National Assembly of Pakistan.

In the 2002 Pakistani general election, Muhammad Hussain Mehanti of the Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal won the seat. The 2008 Pakistani general election saw a shift as Abdul Rasheed Godil of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement – London (MQM) secured a victory with 87,280 votes. Godil also won in the 2013 Pakistani general election, again representing MQM, with 91,339 votes.

The 2018 delimitation process led to the abolition of NA-252, with its area being divided among new constituencies: NA-243 (Karachi East-II), NA-244 (Karachi East-III), and NA-245 (Karachi East-IV), which absorbed the western part of the former NA-252.
