Elected President

Presidential elections are scheduled to be held in Kyrgyzstan on 24 January 2027.[1]

Since Japorov assumed the presidency in 2021 the country has been described as having gone into democratic backsliding.[2]

Electoral system

The elections were held using the two-round system, where if no candidate received a majority in the first round, a second would be held between the top two finishers.[3] Under the 2021 constitution, the presidential term was changed from one term of six years to two terms of five years.[4]
