Parliamentary elections were held in Haiti on 30 April 1961.

[1] They followed the dissolution of Parliament by President François Duvalier and the abolition of the Senate, making the Chamber of Deputies a unicameral body.

Duvalier's National Unity Party won all 67 seats in the elections,[2] which were later re-interpreted as presidential elections in order to give Duvalier a six-year presidential term and avoid the need for scheduled presidential election in 1963.

[3][4] For the first time in Haitian history, two women were elected as deputies: Madame Max Adolphe and Aviole Paul-Blanc.
