List of Scottish Parliament constituencies and electoral regions (2026–)

The Scottish Parliament (Holyrood) has 73 constituencies, each electing one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the plurality (first past the post) system of election, and eight additional members regions, each electing seven additional MSPs using the D'Hondt method of allocating from party lists to produce a form of proportional representation. The total number of parliamentary seats is 129. For links to lists of MSPs, see Member of the Scottish Parliament and Scottish Parliament constituencies and electoral regions.

The Scotland Act 1998 as amended by the Scottish Elections (Reform) Act 2020 requires Boundaries Scotland to regularly review boundaries of all constituencies; the Second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries, taking place between 2023 and 2025, will result in new constituency boundaries for the 2026 Scottish Parliament election.
