General elections were held in Liechtenstein on 3 February 2013 to elect the 25 members of the Landtag. The Progressive Citizens' Party (FBP) won ten seats, with the Patriotic Union (VU) winning eight, the lowest in its history. The Independents (DU), which had been formed earlier in the year, won four seats. The Free List won three seats. It was the first time that four parties won seats in the Landtag. Voter turnout was 79.8%.
Incumbent prime minister Klaus Tschütscher did not run for re-election. The VU nominated Thomas Zwiefelhofer, while the FBP nominated Adrian Hasler and the Free List nominated Pepo Frick, being the first time that there was three candidates for the position. Following the elections, the FBP and VU were asked to form a coalition government, ultimately under the leadership of Hasler. The election is generally considered the end of the two-party system between the FBP and VU, moving towards a multi-party system.
