The Electoral Court of Uruguay (Spanish: Corte Electoral de Uruguay) is the autonomous body which oversees the implementation of electioneering process, such as elections, referendums on laws and constitutional plebiscites in the Oriental Republic of Uruguay.

Based in Ciudad Vieja, Montevideo, it was created on January 9, 1924.[1] Section XVIII of the Constitution of the Republic regulates the Electoral Justice of the country, and according to Article 322 to the Electoral Court is assigned to act in all matters relating to electoral acts or procedures; to exercise directive, disciplinary, advisory, and economic supervision over electoral organs; and to render final decision on all appeals and claims that may arise and act as judge of the elections to all elective offices, and of plebiscites and referendum.[2][3][4]

There are other institutions whose elections are controlled by the Electoral Court, such as the University of the Republic[5] the National Teachers Assemblies[6] or the Social Security Bank.[7]
