The Assemblée nationale du Québec maintains relations with other parliaments and interparliamentary organizations.
In conducting interparliamentary and international relations, the Assemblée nationale follows three principles:
- Pursuing its interparliamentary and international relations independently
- Integrating interparliamentary and international relations into its parliamentary work
- Maintaining its democratic pluralism in designating participants to its interparliamentary and international activities in order to ensure gender parity and the representativeness of each parliamentary group and independent MNAs according to its composition
