Parliamentary elections were held in Egypt for 17 governorates from 10–11 November 2025, while the remainder of the governorates held elections from 24–25 November 2025, with first-phase runoffs held from 3–4 December. Second-phase runoffs were held from 17–18 December.

Electoral system

The seats in parliament consist of 284 individual seats and 284 closed party list seats, with 28 additionally appointed by the president. The electoral law passed in May marks out 143 constituencies for individual seats and four constituencies for party lists. The party list constituencies include "Cairo and the Middle and South Delta" and "North, Middle and South Upper Egypt", which each represent 102 seats. The "Eastern Nile Delta" and "Alexandria and the Western Delta" both represent 40 seats.

In the party block vote seats, a party list wins all seats available if it receive more than 50% of the vote. However if no list receives more than 50% of the vote, a second round is held between top two parties and the list with the most votes wins all seats. Party lists contain quotas, with each list required to have 51 women, three Christians, two candidates for "workers and farmers", two for "young people", and one each set aside for the "physically disabled" and expatriates.

Dates

Voting for overseas residents was held from 7 to 8 November.

The first phase in Egypt began on 10 November 2025 and lasted until the next day; it included the Giza, Fayoum, Beni Suef, Minya, Assiut, New Valley, Sohag, Qena, Luxor, Aswan, Red Sea, Alexandria, Beheira, and Matrouh governorates.

A second round of voting in Egypt began on 24 November and continues until 25 November in Cairo, Dakahlia, Damietta, Gharbia, Ismailia, Kafr El Sheikh, Monufia, North Sinai, Port Said, Qalyubiyya, Sharqia, South Sinai, and Suez Governorates. Around 5,606 polling stations were set up. Overseas voting for run off elections for the second phase took place beginning on 15 December until 16 December. Voting in the country began on 17 December and will last until 18 December.

The parties that competed as part of the National Unified List for Egypt included the Nation's Future Party, National Front, the Homeland Defenders Party, the Republican People's Party, the New Wafd Party, the Tagammu Party, the Egyptian Social Democratic Party, the Justice Party, the Reform and Development Party, the Will of Generation Party, the Egyptian Freedom Party, the Conference Party, and the Coordination Committee for Parties’ Youth. Several parties which were part of the Civil Democratic Movement, (the Egyptian Social Democratic Party, the Justice Party, and the Reform and Development Party) formed a separate alliance to contest individual seats, in addition to allying with the National Unified List.

The Reform and Renaissance Party ran in the election.

The Modern Egypt Party ran candidates.

The Constitution Party and the Conservative Party allied and ran for individual seats, in an alliance known as the Free Path Alliance, which is also translated as the Free Road Alliance.

Various leftist parties who are part of the Civil Democratic Movement, including the Socialist Popular Alliance Party, the Egyptian Socialist Party, the Dignity Party, and the Bread and Freedom Party, formed the Social Justice Alliance ahead of the election.

Four coalitions ("Popular List, the Your Voice for Egypt List, the Call of Egypt List, and the Generation List") were disqualified from running. The Democratic Generation Party responded that all necessary paperwork was submitted.

Haitham al-Hariry, a former MP from Alexandria who is a member of the Socialist Popular Alliance Party (SPAP), as well as SPAP member Mohamed Abdel Halim, were disqualified from running, in addition to members of the Al-Nour Party, after the National Elections Authority ruled that decrees by the Ministry of Defense exempting candidates were insufficient.

Conduct

On 18 November, Egypt annulled votes in 19 of the 70 constituencies following alleged "violations", including political ad violations and counting errors. The National Elections Authority re-ran elections in those 19 constituencies, beginning on 3 December. The repeated elections were spread out across seven governorates.

The Higher Administrative Court ruled on 30 November that 29 additional districts during the first phase of the elections had to re-run their elections.

Results

Results for the first phase of the election were released on 18 November. The sole list to compete won in all of the constituencies in which it ran, by winning more than five percent of the vote.

The National Elections Authority announced the "first-round results for the second phase"; the Nation's Future Party won 22 seats, the Homeland Defenders Party won six seats, the National Front won four seats, the Republican People's Party won two seats, the Justice Party and the Conservative Party each won a seat and four independents also won seats. Five opposition candidates (including the leader of the Justice Party and a member of the Al-Nour Party), won their second phase elections outright, while several (including a member of the New Wafd Party and a member of the Tagammu Party) advanced to run offs.
