Iran's President-elect Masoud Pezeshkian will be officially inaugurated on Sunday, July 28, as the next president in a ceremony called Tanfiz, hosted by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.
Two days later, he will take the oath of office in the parliament, during a ceremony called Tahlif in the Constitution.
There are several steps until the president-elect can be called Iran’s President.
After the election, the Guardian Council should confirm the validity of the results, ensuring that the election process followed legal precepts. Then, it issues a certificate of appointment for the president-elect.
This document should be signed by the members of the Council and then sent to the Supreme Leader, who would announce the date for Tanfiz, when he officially endorses the election results and ratifies the new president. It is followed by Tahlif, or the swearing-in ceremony, which usually happens within a few days.
The president will then have 15 days to present his proposed ministers to the parliament for a vote of confidence, which is reportedly set to be held on September 5.
