Nominees in the 2016 Philippine House of Representatives party-list election

These are the list of the party-list groups (and their nominees) who are qualified for the 2016 Philippine House of Representatives elections.

139 party-list groups were part of the "initial list" of candidates for the 2016 elections, released by the Commission of Elections on January 22, 2016.[1] The party-list slots were drawn via electronic raffle.[2] It only trimmed down to 115 after the COMELEC released the final list of party-list groups that would be included in the printed ballots.[3]

The list of the partylist and their nominees are available online on the COMELEC's website.[4]
