2026–2027 Bangladeshi local elections

Common card · No. 448818

Local elections in Bangladesh are scheduled to be held in phases between November 2026 and mid-2027, covering five tiers of local government: union parishads, upazila parishads, municipal corporations (pourashavas), zila parishads, and city corporations. The Election Commission (EC) announced on 14 September 2026 that union parishad elections, the first tier to go to the polls, will be held in seven phases beginning 12 November 2026, with the process expected to run through most of 2027. These will be the first local government elections held since the BNP, led by Tarique Rahman, took office following its landslide victory in the February 2026 general election, and the first nationwide local polls since the fall of the Awami League government in the 2024 July Uprising.
