Union Latino Americana (ULA) was the short existing Pan American Governing body of Hispanic fraternities created in the early 20th century. The ULA was established in 1932, during a convention of Phi Iota Alpha in the City of New York.

The ULA organized Latin America into 22 zones. Each of the 21 Latin American countries constituted a zone. The 22nd zone was represented by the United States. The ULA, was a framework for the implementation of Pan-American ideology. All the zones were bonded by the same constitution and internal rules and regulations. On September 30, 1934 Sigma Delta Alpha, a fraternity established on the island of Puerto Rico joined the Union. It was renamed Phi Sigma Alpha. By 1937, the ULA had several well-established and functional zones including:

• ΦIA - Phi Iota Alpha in United States
• ΦKA - Phi Kappa Alpha in Cuba
• ΦΣA - Phi Sigma Alpha in Puerto Rico
• ΦTA - Phi Tau Alpha in Mexico

In September 1939, the Phi Sigma Alpha zone decided to separate from the ULA and eventually, to form Phi Sigma Alpha Fraternity of Puerto Rico. The ULA dissolved shortly after.
