Parliamentary elections were held in the unrecognized Nagorno-Karabakh Republic on 3 May 2015.

Nagorno-Karabakh declared its independence from Azerbaijan in 1991. A conflict took place between 1988 and 1994 which resulted in Nagorno-Karabakh, with Armenian support, becoming de facto independent from Azerbaijan. However it has not been internationally recognised and Azerbaijan still claims the area as part of its state.

Azerbaijan, the European Union, the United States and Turkey all said that they did not recognise the elections.
