The police watchdog said officers had been called to an incident.
"Officers attended and, during engagement with the man, it is understood a Taser was discharged," the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC) said in a statement.
"The man became unresponsive and was subsequently pronounced dead.
"The IPCC has begun an independent investigation."
The watchdog said officers had been called by a member of the public.
The caller had become concerned for the man, who appeared to be injured.
A force spokeswoman said: "Dyfed-Powys Police were called to an incident in Llanelli relating to the behaviour and welfare of a man.
"A man subsequently died.
"A full investigation has commenced and Dyfed-Powys Police referred the matter to the IPCC, who will now conduct an internal investigation.
"We are fully co-operating with them.
"Our thoughts are with the family of the man."
