The Colombian presidential line of succession is the order which the vice president and other members of the Colombian national Government assume the powers and duties of the Colombian presidency (or the office itself, in the instance of succession by the vice president) upon an elected president's death in office, resignation, removal from office upon impeachment conviction or incapacity.
The order of succession specifies that the position passes to the vice president. If the vice presidency is simultaneously vacant, or if the vice president is also incapacitated, the powers and duties of the presidency pass to the cabinet ministers, according to their respective order of precedence.[1][2]
Current order of succession
The first person in the line of presidential sucessión is the vice president. In absence of both the president and the vice president, Article 203[3] of the Constitution of Colombia establishes that the presidential office will be assumed by a minister in the order of precedence established by Article 17 of Act 1444 of 2011 and Article 20 of Act 2162 of 2021. The assuming minister has to be member of the same party or movement the original president belonged to, and will exercise the presidency until the Congress, within the 30 days following the presidential vacancy, elects a new vice president who will assume the presidency.[4]
