General elections were held in the Cook Islands on 2 November 1983 to elect 24 MPs to the Parliament. The election was called as a result of the March, 1983 elections being overturned. The result was a coalition government, with Democratic Party leader Tom Davis becoming Prime Minister, with the Cook Islands Party's Geoffrey Henry as Deputy Prime Minister. Henry was later replaced with Dr Terepai Maoate.

Following the election the result in the constituency of Ruaau was declared void due to treating by an unsuccessful candidate.
