The Subang parliamentary seat will not hold a by-election following the resignation of its PKR Member of Parliament, Wong Chen, on 10 August 2026.

Wong's resignation was submitted to the Speaker on 5 August 2026. Article 51 of the Federal Constitution dictates that the vacancy was declared, and Article 54 (1) of the same constitution allows the Speaker to inform the Election Commission that no by-election is necessary.
