Parliamentary elections are scheduled to be held in Colombia on 8 March 2026.[1]

Electoral system

Of the 166 members of the House of Representatives, 162 are elected by proportional representation from 33 multi-member constituencies based on the departments, with seats allocated using the largest remainder method.[2] Two members were elected by the Afro-Colombian community, one by the Indigenous community, and one by Colombian expatriates.[3] The 102 Senators are elected by two methods; 100 from a single nationwide constituency by proportional representation (with seats allocated using the largest remainder) and two from a two-seat constituency for Indigenous Colombians.[4]
