Arts. 72-73: GEC decision and parliament's law recognising the mandate. Art. 77: second voting within 14 days. DATE WORKING: the incumbent was elected on 9 Jun 2021 for six years (Constitution art. 30.2), so the next regular election falls in 2027; art. 8.2 allows any working day from 1 to 15 Jun 2027, and the file uses the LATEST, Tue 15 Jun 2027 (tentative).

Risks: an extraordinary election within four months if the presidency falls vacant (art. 74.2); parliament may postpone under a state of emergency or war (art. 8.5); an amendment bill submitted on 14 May 2026 (iKon.mn, ikon.mn/n/3ni7) would add early voting and extend overseas voting to five days, and the consolidated text on legalinfo.mn (read 26 Sep 2026) shows no amendment later than 5 Jun 2024; articles 8, 56, 72 and 77 carry no amendment notes.",
