The Mäjilis of the Parliament of the Republic of Kazakhstan of the 3rd convocation was the legislative term of the lower house of the Parliament of Kazakhstan. It lasted from 3 November 2004 until the dissolution of the Parliament on 20 June 2007.[1] During the convocation, the Otan gained its largest share of the seats after it became merged with Asar, Civic, and Agrarian parties in 2006.[2]

The 3rd Mäjilis was formed after the 2004 Kazakh legislative election which took place in September and October 2004.[3] The seats were elected through mixed electoral system before the 2007 amendment to the Constitution of Kazakhstan which replaced the voting system with proportional representation.[4]
