If run-offs are required, voting abroad would be held on 31 December and 1 January, and inside Egypt on 3 and 4 January.

The 30 constituencies annulled by court rulings span ten governorates, with the largest number concentrated in Upper Egypt and Greater Cairo. Giza tops the list with seven districts affected, followed by Minya with five and Beheira with four.

Luxor and Aswan each have three annulled constituencies, while Assiut also has three. The New Valley governorate has two cancelled districts, and Alexandria, Sohag, and Fayoum each account for one constituency.
