This is a list of Acts of the 2nd session of the 58th Parliament of the United Kingdom, which began on 11 May 2021[1] and has not yet concluded.

Acts passed since 1963 are cited by calendar year,[2] as opposed to the convention used for earlier Acts of citing the regnal year(s) in which the relevant parliamentary session was held.[3] Each Act passed in a respective year is given a chapter number (abbreviated "c."), denoted by Arabic numerals in the case of Public General Acts, lowercase Roman numerals in the case of Local Acts, or italicised Arabic numerals in the case of Personal Acts. These run as separate series.[4]

12 Acts of Parliament have so far been passed by the 58th Parliament in its 2nd session; all are Public General Acts.
