The 18 May 2003 Belgian federal elections were the first Belgian elections to be held under a new electoral code. One of the novelties was an electoral threshold of 5% which has cost many seats to the N-VA and the Green parties Ecolo and Agalev. The Belgian Socialists recovered well; the liberal and nationalist parties increased their vote as well.The Flemish Greens lost all their seats.
