Presidential elections will be held in Egypt no earlier than 8 February 2018 and no later than 8 May 2018. As of August 2016, no one has formally announced his or her nomination for the election, however, the current President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi made some indications that he might run for second and final term, if the people want him to run, in an interview with the editors of the government-funded newspapers.

On 5 May 2017, former presidential candidate Hamdeen Sabahi called for opposition parties to unite behind a single candidate.

The President of Egypt is elected using the two-round system. The constitution of Egypt requires that election proceedings shall not begin earlier than 120 days from the date of the end of the current presidential term, which ends on 7 June 2018 and the results shall not be announced later than 30 days before the date of the end of the current presidential term.
