Template:Short description Template:Infobox legislative election

Early general elections were held in the Netherlands on 8 September 1982.[1][2] The Labour Party emerged as the largest party, winning 47 of the 150 seats in the House of Representatives;[3] however, this would be the last time it did so until 1994.

The Centre Party received 0.8% of the vote, winning one seat, which was taken by Hans Janmaat. This was the first time since World War II that a party considered to be right-wing extremist won a seat in the Dutch parliament.

Following the election the Christian Democratic Appeal (CDA) formed a coalition government with the People's Party for Freedom and Democracy, with the CDA's Ruud Lubbers becoming prime minister.
