2024 Bangka Belitung Islands gubernatorial election

The 2024 Bangka Belitung Islands gubernatorial election will be held on 27 November 2024 as part of nationwide local elections to elect the governor of the Bangka Belitung Islands for a five-year term. The previous election was held in 2017.

Electoral system
The election, like other local elections in 2024, follow the first-past-the-post system where the candidate with the most votes wins the election, even if they do not win a majority. It is possible for a candidate to run uncontested, in which case the candidate is still required to win a majority of votes "against" an "empty box" option. Should the candidate fail to do so, the election will be repeated on a later date.

Candidates
According to electoral regulations, in order to qualify for the election, candidates are required to secure support from a political party or a coalition of parties controlling 9 seats (20 percent of all seats) in the Bangka Belitung Islands Regional House of Representatives (DPRD). The Indonesian Democratic Party of Struggle, which won 9 of 45 seats in the 2024 legislative election, is the only party eligible to nominate a candidate without forming a coalition with other parties. Candidates may alternatively demonstrate support to run as an independent in form of photocopies of identity cards, which in Bangka Belitung Islands's case corresponds to 106,744 copies. No independent candidates registered with the General Elections Commission prior to the set deadline.

The following are individuals who have either been publicly mentioned as a potential candidate by a political party in the DPRD, publicly declared their candidacy with press coverage, or considered as a potential candidate by media outlets:
 * Erzaldi Rosman Djohan (Gerindra), previous governor.
 * Hidayat Arsani (Golkar), former vice governor.
