The Negeri Sembilan State Legislative Assembly (Malay: Dewan Undangan Negeri Sembilan) is the state legislature of the Malaysian state of Negeri Sembilan. It consists of 36 members who represent single-member constituencies throughout the state. Elections are held no more than five years apart, and are usually conducted simultaneously with elections to the federal parliament and other state assemblies (except Sarawak). It is unicameral.
The Assembly convenes at the Wisma Negeri in the state capital, Seremban.
The Negeri Sembilan State Legislative Assembly's main function is to enact laws that apply in the state. The Speaker presides over proceedings in the Assembly.
The Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan, as head of state, opens each session of the State Assembly. During the first sitting of each legislative session, he is joined by the four Undangs of Negeri Sembilan and the Tunku Besar of Tampin, the very people who elected him.
