The National Movement for Stability and Progress (Bulgarian: Национално движение за стабилност и възход or Nacionalno dviženie za stabilnost i vǎzhod), until 3 June 2007 known as the National Movement Simeon II, is a political party in Bulgaria, the vehicle of Simeon Borisov Sakskoburggotski, the deposed Tsar of Bulgaria and former Prime Minister.

The movement won 42.7% of the popular vote and 120 out of 240 seats in the 2001 elections. It formed a coalition government with the Movement for Rights and Freedoms.
