Presidential elections are scheduled to be held in Guinea on 28 December 2025. They are the first to be held in the country since the 2021 Guinean coup d’état that installed general Mamady Doumbouya as president.

The election month was announced by Prime Minister Bah Oury at the Africa CEO Forum in Abidjan, Ivory Coast on 12 May 2025. In June 2025, the ruling military junta established the Directorate General of Elections (DGE) to oversee the election. The election was scheduled for 28 December 2025 by a decree read by Doumbouya on national television on 27 September 2025.
