Partial legislative elections were held in Belgium on 5 and 12 July 1896. Under the alternating system, elections were held in only five out of the nine provinces: Antwerp, Brabant, Luxembourg, Namur and West Flanders. Only 77 seats out of the 152 seats in the Chamber of Representatives were up for election. The Catholic Party retained their absolute majority. The Liberal Party, who lost two-thirds of their seats in the previous elections, saw their number of seats decrease further.

- Les élections législatives belges de 1896 ont eu lieu le 5 juillet, et ont offert une majorité absolue au Parti catholique à la Chambre des représentants. (fr)
- Gedeeltelijke wetgevende verkiezingen werden gehouden in België op 5 juli 1896, met een tweede ronde op 12 juli. Onder het systeem van gedeeltelijke hernieuwing werden enkel verkiezingen voor de Kamer gehouden in vijf van de negen provincies: Antwerpen, Brabant, Luxemburg, Namen en West-Vlaanderen. Bijgevolg waren 77 van de 152 Kamerzetels te verkiezen. De Liberale Partij, die bij de vorige verkiezingen twee derde van haar zetels verloor, ging nog verder achteruit. De Katholieke Partij versterkte haar absolute meerderheid. (nl)
