The Kuyavian-Pomeranian Voivodeship Sejmik (Polish: Sejmik Województwa Kujawsko-Pomorskiego) is the regional legislature of the Voivodeship of Kuyavia-Pomerania in Poland. It is a unicameral parliamentary body consisting of thirty councillors chosen during regional elections for a five-year term. The current chairperson of the assembly is Elżbieta Piniewska.[1]

The assembly elects the executive board that acts as the collective executive for the regional government, headed by the voivodeship marshal. The current Executive Board of Kuyavia-Pomerania is a coalition government between the Civic Coalition and the Third Way. The board's current chief executive is Marshal Piotr Całbecki of Civic Coalition.[2]

The assembly convenes within the Marshal's Office in Toruń.
