FLASH : Official Calendar of Upcoming Elections

The Provisional Electoral Council (CEP) of Haiti has formally presented the Executive branch with a detailed electoral calendar and draft electoral decree, marking a significant step toward the nation’s upcoming elections. The calendar, submitted on November 14, 2025, outlines a meticulous timeline of activities leading to the election of a new president by early 2027. For the process to proceed smoothly, the CEP has emphasized the necessity of three critical prerequisites: the timely publication of the electoral decree in the official journal ‘Le Moniteur,’ the establishment of adequate security conditions, and the availability of sufficient financial resources. The calendar spans over two years, encompassing key phases such as voter registration, candidate accreditation, electoral campaigns, and the deployment of temporary staff. The first round of legislative and presidential elections is slated for August 30, 2026, with the second round scheduled for December 6, 2026. Final results for the presidential and legislative elections are expected to be published by January 7, 2027, while local government results will be announced by January 20, 2027. The CEP has also highlighted the importance of public awareness campaigns and the recruitment of personnel to ensure the integrity and efficiency of the electoral process. The full calendar is available for download in PDF format, providing transparency and accessibility to the public.
