Under President José Antonio Kast's new conservative administration, inaugurated in March 2026 after his decisive election win on a platform emphasizing crime crackdowns and immigration controls, Chile has seen sporadic protests—including student demonstrations against education reforms in late March, nationwide cacerolazos in mid-April over tax policies, and May Day clashes—but these have been contained by police using water cannons and standard security measures, without military deployment or calls for constitutional exceptions. No official statements indicate plans for a state of siege, a severe measure reserved for internal commotion or invasion under Chile's constitution. Traders' strong consensus against declaration by June 30 reflects this manageable unrest, though sharp escalation in violence or widespread disorder could shift odds.

To count toward resolution, the corresponding decree must explicitly constitute a “State of Siege” as defined by Article 40 of the Chilean Constitution, i.e., it must not be rejected by the National Congress within five days of the President submitting the declaration (after which Congressional approval is deemed granted if no decision is issued).
Only declarations explicitly constituting an “Estado de Sitio” under Chile’s constitutional states of exception will count. If the legal name of the “Estado de Sitio” state of exception changes via constitutional reform but retains the same essential powers, it may qualify.
A declaration of a “State of Emergency” (Estado de Emergencia) or “State of Catastrophe” (Estado de Catástrofe) will not count.
If a region is under a State of Emergency and is subsequently upgraded to a State of Siege, the market resolves "Yes" once the State of Siege takes effect as described above.
A decree applying to any province or region of Chile will qualify.
The primary resolution source will be the Diario Oficial de la República de Chile (www.diariooficial.cl). However, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
