Electoral system

The 596 seats in parliament consist of 448 seats elected by the two-round system in constituencies ranging from one to four seats, 120 elected by party block vote using a two-round system and 28 appointed by the president.

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 for youth, women, Christians, and workers.

284 of the seats are individual seats, while another 284 are closed party lists.

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 is scheduled in Cairo, Dakahlia, Damietta, Gharbia, Ismailia, Kafr El Sheikh, Monufia, North Sinai, Port Said, Qalyubiyya, Sharqia, South Sinai, and Suez Governorates. It will take place in Egypt from 24 November until 25 November. Around 5,606 polling stations were set up.

Parties

Twelve parties are contesting the election, along with the Coordination Committee of Parties’ Youth Leaders and Politicians.

The parties that competed as part of the closed list included the National Front Party, the Nation's Future Party, the Homeland Defenders Party and the Egyptian Social Democratic Party. The Constitution Party and the Conservative Party allied and ran for individual seats.

Disqualifications

Haitham al-Hariry, a former MP from Alexandria who is a member of the Socialist Popular Alliance Party, 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.

Results

Results for the first phase of the election will be released on 18 November, if no runoffs are needed; if they are, results will be announced on 11 December.

The second phase results will be released on 2 December, with runoff results released on 25 December.
