Elections to the European Parliament are held every five years in all member states. Elections are held off-year in a country that has acceded to the European Union and must now send delegates.

Also, during the period when the United Kingdom used single-member, first-past-the-post constituencies to elect Members of the European Parliament from 1979 to 1999, they were required to have by-elections when a member resigned, died in office or was disqualified.

The following is a list of every off-year European Parliamentary election:

  • Greece (1981)
  • Portugal (1987)
  • Spain (1987)
  • Sweden (1995)
  • Austria (1996)
  • Finland (1996)
  • Bulgaria (2007)
  • Romania (2007)
  • Croatia (2013)
  • UK by-elections (1979–98)
