The inauguration ceremony of the 16th President and Vice President of the Republic of China was held on May 20, 2024 (the 113th year of the Republic of China). President-elect Lai Qingde and Vice President-elect Xiao Meiqin of the Democratic Progressive Party were sworn in on that day.
The recommended candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party Lai Qingde won Hou Youyi of the Chinese Nationalist Party and Ke Wenzhe of the Taiwan People's Party. This is the first time since Taiwan became democratized and implemented direct presidential elections that a candidate from the same political party was elected three times in a row, that is, there was no party rotation after serving two terms, breaking the previous practice of party rotation every eight years.
