Parliamentary elections were scheduled to be held in Afghanistan on 15 October 2016, to elect members of the House of the People, but were postponed to 7 July 2018.

Much of the prelude to the election has focused on the debate over reforming Afghanistan’s electoral laws. The current system is one of single non-transferable vote.

The announcement comes two years after the date on which a new parliament was legally supposed to start work, on July 6, 2015.
