ISTANBUL (AA) – Taiwan announced on Friday the dates for the presidential and parliamentary elections that will take place next year.

The Central Election Committee (CEC) said the elections for the 16th president and vice president, as well as the 113-member 11th Legislative Yuan or legislature body, will be held on Jan. 13, 2024.

Eligible candidates for the elections will be able to file nominations from Nov. 20 to 24 later this year.

Taiwan's legislative assembly, president, and vice president all serve four-year terms, with the president having a maximum of two terms in office.
