Parliamentary elections were held in Haiti on 14 October 1930.[1] The elections were authorized by the United States, which wished to pull out of Haiti after a lengthy occupation, and resulted in a majority for nationalist forces. The newly elected National Assembly elected Sténio Vincent as president on 18 November.[1]

Following the elections, the last U.S. Marines left Haiti in 1934.[2]
