Uddingston and Bellshill is a burgh constituency of the Scottish Parliament covering part of the council areas of North Lanarkshire and South Lanarkshire. It elects one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the plurality (first past the post) method of election. Under the additional-member electoral system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament, it has also been one of nine constituencies in the Central Scotland electoral region, which elects seven additional members, in addition to nine constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole. Following the second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries, Falkirk West will form part of the new Central Scotland and Lothians West electoral region from the 2026 Scottish Parliament election onwards.

The constituency was formed for the 2011 Scottish Parliament election, and comprises parts of the former seat of Hamilton North and Bellshill, along with areas that were formerly in the seat of Motherwell and Wishaw. The seat underwent slight boundary changes as a result of second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries, ahead of the 2026 Scottish Parliament election.

The seat has been held by Stephanie Callaghan of the Scottish National Party since the 2021 Scottish Parliament election.
