Application for party establishment, registration ongoing

UNDER Section 3 of the Political Parties Registration Law enacted with the State Administration Council Law No 15/2023, 13 parties applied for the establishment and registration of political parties and 50 parties applied for the right to continue to exist as political parties and registration under Section 25 of the Political Parties Registration Law, totalling 63 parties.

Among these 63 parties, 12 parties will launch election campaigns across the nation and 51 parties only in one region or state. The Union Election Commission continues verifying the applications for party establishment and registration.

The deadline for applications to continue to exist as political parties and registration processes for the parties existing under the Political Parties Registration Law (the State Peace and Development Council Law No 2/2010) has expired on 28 March 2023 under Section 25 of the Political Parties Registration Law (the State Peace and Development Council Law No 15/2023). As a total of 40 political parties failed to make such applications within the fixed period, their right to exist as a political party is automatically invalidated. These parties have been removed from party registrations and dissolved under Notification 5/2023 of the Union Election Commission.

Those who want to establish a political party and make registration can apply to the Union Election Commission under Section 3 of the Political Parties Registration Law.
