The National Assembly (French: Assemblée nationale, Haitian Creole: Asanble Nasyonal) consists of the bicameral legislature of the Republic of Haiti, consisting of the upper house as the Senate (Sénat) and the lower house as the Chamber of Deputies (Chambre des Députés).[A88] Both assemblies conduct legislative sessions at the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince.[A103]

Since 10 January 2023, every seat in each house is vacant as elections have been repeatedly delayed and the final elected legislators' terms expired on January 10.[1]
