The next Spanish general election is not officially scheduled yet , but if the current legislature runs its full term, it must be held by 22 August 2027 at the latest.

What that means

  • Spain’s general elections can be brought forward if the government dissolves the Cortes early.
  • If there is no early election , the legal deadline cited by multiple recent reports is 22 August 2027.
  • Some legal explainers note that the constitutional timing can also point into late summer or early autumn 2027 , depending on how the dates are counted.

In plain terms

So the safest answer is: sometime in 2027, with 22 August 2027 as the latest possible date unless there’s an early snap election.
