Parliamentary elections were held in Azerbaijan on 5 November 2000, although a re-run had to be held in 11 constituencies on 7 January 2001 due to "massive irregularities". In the lead-up to the election, the authoritarian Heydar Aliyev regime banned seven opposition parties (including Musavat, the major opposition party to Aliyev's New Azerbaijan Party) from contesting the election.

The result was a victory for the New Azerbaijan Party, which won 75 of the 125 seats in the National Assembly.
