The Election Commission (EC) will publish the country's final electoral rolls on Tuesday (17 November), listing around 128 million voters for the 13th parliamentary election to be held in early February.

Earlier, on 3 November, the Commission released the draft updated voter lists and invited objections over the draft lists before finalisation.

According to the draft lists, the number of registered voters in Bangladesh is approximately 12.76 crore (exactly 127,612,384).

Of them, 64,760,382 are male, 62,850,772 are female, and 1,230 are from the third gender voters.

The youth who turned 18 years by 31 October 2025 were eligible to be included in the electoral rolls, enabling them to vote in the next general election.

The Election Commission is going to update the voter lists for the third time within the current year – the first one is on March 2, 2025, the second one is on 31 August 2025 and the third one is on 18 November 2025.

During the last 12th parliamentary election held on 7 January 2024, the total number of voters was around 119.69 million throughout the country.
