For the 2025 election, a mixed system combining the First-Past-The-Post (FPTP) and Proportional Representation (PR) systems will be used.

In the Amyotha Hluttaw, each state and region will elect 12 representatives. With 14 states and regions in total, there will be 168 representatives altogether.

In states with many non-election townships, such as Kayah, Chin, and Rakhine, only a few townships are included in Phase 1, while the rest are scheduled for Phases 2 and 3. In other states and regions, townships have been proportionally divided across the three phases.

In planning the phases, priority appears to have been given to security and geographic proximity. All eight townships in the Nay Pyi Taw Union Territory will be included entirely in Phase 1.

The number of townships without elections has gradually increased in past Myanmar elections, and this upcoming election will see the highest number yet, with 56 townships not holding elections.

The Commission has also identified townships where elections will not be held, totaling 56 townships across eight states and regions. The remaining 72 townships will be included in Phase 3 and subsequent phases, with their dates yet to be announced.

The 2025 general election in Myanmar will be held in phases. The Union Election Commission has announced that Phase 1 will take place in 102 townships on 28 December 2025, and Phase 2 in 100 townships on 11 January 2026.
