General elections will be held in theFalkland Islands on 11 December 2025 to elect the eight elected members of theLegislative Assembly (five from theStanley constituency and three from theCamp constituency)[1] throughuniversal suffrage usingblock voting, with theChief Executive of the Falkland Islands acting asreturning officer. It will be the fifth election since the newconstitution came into force replacing theLegislative Council (which had existed since 1845) with the Legislative Assembly.
Under theConstitution of theFalkland Islands, the Legislative Assembly must bedissolved by theGovernor four years after the first meeting of the Legislative Assembly following the last election (unless theExecutive Council advises the Governor to dissolve the Legislative Assembly sooner). An election must then take place within 70 days of thedissolution.[2]
With the first meeting of the current Legislative Assembly taking place on 8 November 2021,[3] 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.[1]
