Haiti's Provisional Electoral Council postponed voter and candidate registration in early April 2026—originally set to begin April 1—citing a new decree requiring alignment with a national political pact, with no revised dates announced, amplifying trader concerns over delays to the targeted August 30 first-round general elections. Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aimé's April 25 rejection of the council's $250 million budget proposal, amid disputes over costs and control, further erodes confidence amid rampant gang violence controlling swaths of Port-au-Prince, economic strain, and a decade without national elections since 2016. These setbacks reflect persistent political divisions and security barriers, shaping the 57.5% implied probability of further postponement despite UN calls for timely voting as the path to constitutional order.
