Presidential elections were held in the Republic of Abkhazia on 22 March 2020 following the decision of the Supreme Court to annul the results of the 2019 election on 10 January, and the subsequent resignation of President Raul Khajimba due to protests against his presidency.

Aslan Bzhania was considered the frontrunner in the elections, and was elected with around 59% of the vote.
