General elections were held in Belgium on 5 April 1925.[1] The result was a victory for the Belgian Labour Party, which won 78 of the 187 seats in the Chamber of Representatives.[2] Voter turnout was 92.8% in the Chamber election and 92.7% in the Senate election.[3]

An extra seat in the Chamber of Representatives was assigned to the arrondissement of Verviers, after the annexation of Eupen-Malmedy.

Following the elections, Aloys Van de Vyvere formed a Catholic minority government. After he failed to receive the confidence of the other parties in parliament, a Catholic-Labour government was formed led by Prosper Poullet.
