Presidential elections are scheduled to be held in Portugal in January 2026. The elections will elect the successor to President [[Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa]], who is barred from running for a third term.
== Background and election procedure ==
[[Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa]] was re-elected in January 2021 with almost 61% of the votes on the first round. He took the oath of office on 9 March 2021, and continued the [[Cohabitation (government)|cohabitation]] with [[Socialist Party (Portugal)|Socialist]] Prime Minister [[António Costa]] that lasted until April 2024. After that, President and Prime Minister, [[Luís Montenegro]], are from the same party, the [[Social Democratic Party (Portugal)|Social Democratic Party]]. In Portugal, the president is the [[head of state]] and has mostly ceremonial powers; however, the president has some political influence and can [[Dissolution of Parliament|dissolve]] the [[Parliament of Portugal]] if a crisis occurs. The president also has an [[official residence]] in the [[Belém Palace]] in Lisbon.
To stand for election, candidates for the presidency each have to gather 7,500 signatures of support one month before the election, and submit them to the [[Constitutional Court of Portugal]]. Then, the Constitutional Court has to certify if the candidacies submitted meet the requirements to appear on the ballot. The highest number of candidacies ever accepted was ten, in 2016. Under Portuguese law, a candidate must receive a majority of votes (50% plus one vote) to be elected. If no candidate achieves a majority in the first round, a [[runoff election]] (i.e., second round, held between the two candidates who receive the most votes in the first round) has to be held.

Presidential elections are scheduled to be held in Portugal in January 2026. The elections will elect the successor to President [[Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa]], who is barred from running for a third term.
== Background and election procedure ==
[[Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa]] was re-elected in January 2021 with almost 61% of the votes on the first round. He took the oath of office on 9 March 2021, and continued the [[Cohabitation (government)|cohabitation]] with [[Socialist Party (Portugal)|Socialist]] Prime Minister [[António Costa]] that lasted until April 2024. After that, President and Prime Minister, [[Luís Montenegro]], are from the same party, the [[Social Democratic Party (Portugal)|Social Democratic Party]]. In Portugal, the president is the [[head of state]] and has mostly ceremonial powers; however, the president has some political influence and can [[Dissolution of Parliament|dissolve]] the [[Parliament of Portugal]] if a crisis occurs. The president also has an [[official residence]] in the [[Belém Palace]] in Lisbon.
To stand for election, candidates for the presidency each have to gather 7,500 signatures of support one month before the election, and submit them to the [[Constitutional Court of Portugal]]. Then, the Constitutional Court has to certify if the candidacies submitted meet the requirements to appear on the ballot. The highest number of candidacies ever accepted was ten, in 2016. Under Portuguese law, a candidate must receive a majority of votes (50% plus one vote) to be elected. If no candidate achieves a majority in the first round, a [[runoff election]] (i.e., second round, held between the two candidates who receive the most votes in the first round) has to be held.

Background and election procedure[edit source]
Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa was re-elected in January 2021 with almost 61% of the votes on the first round. He took the oath of office on 9 March 2021, and continued the cohabitation with Socialist Prime Minister António Costa that lasted until April 2024. After that, President and Prime Minister, Luís Montenegro, are from the same party, the Social Democratic Party. In Portugal, the president is the head of state and has mostly ceremonial powers; however, the president has some political influence and can dissolve the Parliament of Portugal if a crisis occurs. The president also has an official residence in the Belém Palace in Lisbon.
To stand for election, candidates for the presidency each have to gather 7,500 signatures of support one month before the election, and submit them to the Constitutional Court of Portugal. Then, the Constitutional Court has to certify if the candidacies submitted meet the requirements to appear on the ballot. The highest number of candidacies ever accepted was ten, in 2016. Under Portuguese law, a candidate must receive a majority of votes (50% plus one vote) to be elected. If no candidate achieves a majority in the first round, a runoff election (i.e., second round, held between the two candidates who receive the most votes in the first round) has to be held.

Presidential elections are scheduled to be held in Portugal in January 2026. The elections will elect the successor to President [[Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa]], who is barred from running for a third term.
== Background and election procedure ==
[[Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa]] was re-elected in January 2021 with almost 61% of the votes on the first round. He took the oath of office on 9 March 2021, and continued the [[Cohabitation (government)|cohabitation]] with [[Socialist Party (Portugal)|Socialist]] Prime Minister [[António Costa]] that lasted until April 2024. After that, President and Prime Minister, [[Luís Montenegro]], are from the same party, the [[Social Democratic Party (Portugal)|Social Democratic Party]]. In Portugal, the president is the [[head of state]] and has mostly ceremonial powers; however, the president has some political influence and can [[Dissolution of Parliament|dissolve]] the [[Parliament of Portugal]] if a crisis occurs. The president also has an [[official residence]] in the [[Belém Palace]] in Lisbon.
To stand for election, candidates for the presidency each have to gather 7,500 signatures of support one month before the election, and submit them to the [[Constitutional Court of Portugal]]. Then, the Constitutional Court has to certify if the candidacies submitted meet the requirements to appear on the ballot. The highest number of candidacies ever accepted was ten, in 2016. Under Portuguese law, a candidate must receive a majority of votes (50% plus one vote) to be elected. If no candidate achieves a majority in the first round, a [[runoff election]] (i.e., second round, held between the two candidates who receive the most votes in the first round) has to be held.
