2025 Falkland Islands general election

General elections were held in the Falkland Islands on 11 December 2025 to elect the eight elected members of the Legislative Assembly (five from the Stanley constituency and three from the Camp constituency) through universal suffrage using block voting, with the Chief Executive of the Falkland Islands acting as returning officer. It was the fifth election since the new constitution came into force replacing the Legislative Council (which had existed since 1845) with the Legislative Assembly.

Timing and procedure

Under the Constitution of the Falkland Islands, the Legislative Assembly must be dissolved by the Governor four years after the first meeting of the Legislative Assembly following the last election (unless the Executive Council advises the Governor to dissolve the Legislative Assembly sooner). An election must then take place within 70 days of the dissolution.

With the first meeting of the current Legislative Assembly taking place on 8 November 2021, the Legislative Assembly had to be dissolved by midnight on 7 November 2025 and an election take place before 17 January 2026. However, on 7 August 2025, the Executive Council announced an early dissolution of the Legislative Assembly and an election to take place on Thursday 11 December 2025.
