In the 2019 General Election, there were 575 seats in the House of Representatives (DPR) contested by political parties.

The number of parliamentary seats was the highest since 1977, as shown in the graph.

Looking back, the largest increase in DPR seats occurred in the 2004 General Election, with an increase of 88 seats compared to the 1999 General Election, bringing the total to 550 seats.

Meanwhile, a reduction in parliamentary seats only occurred once, in the 1992 General Election, which decreased by 4 seats compared to the 1987 General Election.

The allocation of the number of seats and the determination of the DPR electoral districts in the 2024 General Election will be discussed from October 14, 2022 to February 9, 2023.

Based on Law No. 7 of 2017 concerning Elections, Article 414 states that participating political parties must meet a threshold of at least 4% of the national valid votes to be included in the determination of the number of DPR members' seats.

Previously, the Government and the DPR had agreed that the presidential and legislative elections would be held simultaneously on February 14, 2024.

The stages of the election have been set starting February 14, 2022, or 20 months before the simultaneous elections are held.
