General elections were held in Niue on 7 April 1990.[1] Turnout was 94%. While primarily contested by independents, the elections saw the emergence of two political parties: the Action Party, led by Young Vivian, and the Niue People's Action Party, led by Sani Lakatani.[1] The two parties merged shortly before the election.

Following the election, Robert Rex was re-elected for a sixth term as Premier of Niue by a vote of 12 to 8. Sam Tagelagi was re-elected Speaker by the same margin.
