Over 4,500 candidates are competing for 650 parliamentary seats. Out of these, 533 seats are in England, 59 in Scotland, 40 in Wales, and 18 in Northern Ireland.
To facilitate the voting process, more than 40,000 polling stations have been established nationwide. Voting will take place uninterrupted from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. local time. The election results will be announced on July 5.
A political party or coalition needs to secure at least 326 seats to form a government.
