Parliamentary elections are scheduled to be held in Slovakia by 2027 to elect members of the National Council, although they can be held sooner if a snap election is called.
The last elections were snap elections held in 2023. This resulted in a coalition government between the social conservative Direction – Social Democracy, the social democratic Voice – Social Democracy, and the ultranationalist Slovak National Party, with Robert Fico becoming the prime minister.
