Ibiza (Catalan: Eivissa) is one of the four constituencies (Spanish: circunscripciones) represented in the Parliament of the Balearic Islands, the regional legislature of the Autonomous Community of the Balearic Islands. The constituency currently elects 12 deputies. Its boundaries correspond to those of the island of Ibiza. The electoral system uses the D'Hondt method and a closed-list proportional representation, with a minimum threshold of five percent.
Until the 2003 election, the results in this district were also used to determine the composition of the Island Council of Ibiza and Formentera during the same term as the Parliament, with Ibiza counting for 12 out of the 13 seats of the Council—11 out of 12 from 1983 to 1987—. From the 2007 election onwards, a separate election is held, also having both Ibiza and Formentera independent Councils, the Island Council of Ibiza electing 13 members. Additionally, on 3 April 1979 the first independent election for the Island Council of Ibiza and Formentera was held, electing 12 councillors.[2]
