The 13 December 1987 Belgian general elections was a Belgian election for the Belgian Chamber of Representatives and Belgian Senate. Elections to the nine provincial councils were also held.
The snap elections were called after the government led by Wilfried Martens (CVP) fell due to the Voeren issue.
Following the election, the King appointed Jean-Luc Dehaene (CVP) as informateur; Dehaene famously replied "Sire, give me one hundred days". 106 days later a new government was formed, again led by Wilfried Martens.
