<p>The origins of Chile as a nation can be traced to 1541, when it was separated from the existing Viceroyalty of Peru by King <a href="Charles_V%2C_Holy_Roman_Emperor" title="Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor">Charles I</a>, creating the new <a href="Captaincy_General_of_Chile" title="Captaincy General of Chile">Kingdom of Chile</a>.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Requirements">Requirements</h3></div>
<p>The <a href="Chilean_Constitution_of_1980" title="Chilean Constitution of 1980">Constitution of 1980</a>, with its 2005 amendment, outlines the qualifications for becoming president. To be eligible, the individual must be a <a href="Natural-born_citizen" class="mw-redirect" title="Natural-born citizen">natural-born</a> Chilean citizen or born abroad to Chilean parents or grandparents. They must also be at least 35 years old<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and meet all the requirements for becoming a <a href="Chilean_Senate" class="mw-redirect" title="Chilean Senate">Senator</a>.
</p><p>In addition, the president must have the right to vote as a <a href="Chilean_citizenship" class="mw-redirect" title="Chilean citizenship">fully Chilean citizen</a>, which includes being at least 18 years of age, not having been sentenced to a severe punishment, not having lost the right to vote due to insanity, not having been tried or condemned for a serious crime or terrorist conduct, nor condemned by the <a href="Constitutional_Court_of_Chile" title="Constitutional Court of Chile">Constitutional Court</a> under Article 8 of the Chilean Constitution.
</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Election">Election</h3></div>
<p>Article 26 detail the electoral requirements. The president shall be elected by direct ballot, with an absolute majority of the votes validly cast. A <a href="Two-round_system" title="Two-round system">two-round system</a> is used. In order to win the election in the first round, the winning candidate's party must receive more than 50 percent of the valid votes leaving out of the count blank and spoiled votes.
</p><p>The election shall be held the third Sunday of November of the year immediately before the end of the administration of the president then holding office. Should there be more than two candidates in the presidential election, none of them obtaining more than half of the votes validly cast, a new election shall be held. The second election ("balloting"), in the manner determined by law, shall be held the fourth Sunday after the first election, limited to the two candidates with the highest relative majorities. Then, the candidate with the majority of valid votes in that round is elected president. Previously, under the 1925 constitution, the Congress of Chile elected the president in the run-off, including (notably) in the <a href="1970_Chilean_presidential_election" title="1970 Chilean presidential election">1970 Chilean presidential election</a>.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Term_duration">Term duration</h3></div>

<p>Under the 1828 constitution, the president served for four years, without the possibility of immediate reelection for one more term. In 1833, the presidential period was changed to five years, with a possibility of immediate reelection for one more term, limited to two consecutive terms. Then by a constitutional reform in 1878, possibility for reelection became disallowed. Under the 1925 constitution, the president served for a six-year term, without the possibility of immediate reelection. Non-consecutive election was possible, as seen with <a href="Jorge_Alessandri" title="Jorge Alessandri">Jorge Alessandri</a> (president 1958-1964) running a close second in the momentous election of 1970, although ultimately it did not occur.
</p><p>In the original text of the 1980 constitution, the president served for an eight-year term without the possibility of immediate reelection. Some transitory disposals, fixed during the <a href="Military_dictatorship_of_Chile" title="Military dictatorship of Chile">military dictatorship</a> of the general <a href="Augusto_Pinochet" title="Augusto Pinochet">Augusto Pinochet</a>, allowed the exceptional possibility of his reelection in the <a href="1988_Chilean_national_plebiscite" class="mw-redirect" title="1988 Chilean national plebiscite">1988 plebiscite</a>. Then, in the <a href="Chilean_transition_to_democracy" title="Chilean transition to democracy">transition to democracy</a> the <a href="1989_Chilean_constitutional_referendum" title="1989 Chilean constitutional referendum">1989 referendum</a> established a first transitional four-year presidential term (1990–1994), followed by common eight-year terms, without the possibility of immediate reelection. However, in 4 March 1994 (a week before <a href="Eduardo_Frei_Ruiz-Tagle" title="Eduardo Frei Ruiz-Tagle">Eduardo Frei Ruiz-Tagle</a> took office) the presidential period was reduced to a six-year term, without an immediate reelection.
</p><p>Under the 2005 constitutional reform, the president serves for four years without the possibility of immediate reelection for one more term. A former president may run for office once again after serving their initial term, but only in an election following their successor, as it is not allowed to run for consecutive terms. There is no limit to how many times a person can run for candidacy if they have not previously served as president.
</p><p>The incumbent president, in accordance with the constitution, completes their corresponding term on 11 March of the immediate year after the election. The <a href="President-elect_of_Chile" title="President-elect of Chile">president-elect</a> takes office the same day.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Succession">Succession</h3></div>
<p>If the president is unable to perform his or her duties, the President's powers are usually temporarily transferred to the <a href="Ministry_of_the_Interior_and_Public_Security_(Chile)" class="mw-redirect" title="Ministry of the Interior and Public Security (Chile)">minister of the interior</a> under the title of "<a href="Vice_President_of_Chile" title="Vice President of Chile">Vice President</a>". However, this is not a substantive position. Rather, the holder of the position fulfills the duties of the president only for as long as the president is incapacitated or a vacancy occurs. If the president and the minister of the interior are both temporarily unavailable, the next minister of the government, in the order of succession, becomes the vice president. The consent of the Senate is required for the vice president to exercise the duties of the president.

<p>The <a href="Presidential_sash" class="mw-redirect" title="Presidential sash">presidential sash</a>, used initially by <a href="Bernardo_O'Higgins" title="Bernardo O'Higgins">Bernardo O'Higgins</a>, became a symbol of the authority of the first president with the assumption of office by President <a href="Jos%C3%A9_Joaqu%C3%ADn_Prieto" class="mw-redirect" title="José Joaquín Prieto">José Joaquín Prieto</a> in 1831. It is composed of three stripes with the colors of the Chilean flag, it is sewn by hand and measured approximately 75&nbsp;cm (30&nbsp;in) long and 13&nbsp;cm (5.1&nbsp;in) wide.
</p><p>From the nineteenth century a single sash was maintained that was transferred from president to president until 1915, due to the height differences between the outgoing <a href="Ram%C3%B3n_Barros_Luco" title="Ramón Barros Luco">Ramón Barros Luco</a> and the elected <a href="Juan_Luis_Sanfuentes" title="Juan Luis Sanfuentes">Juan Luis Sanfuentes</a>, so a new sash had to be designed.

It dates back to the medals of the Legion of Merit and remained intact until the coup d'état of 1973, when it disappeared during the bombing of the <a href="La_Moneda" class="mw-redirect" title="La Moneda">La Moneda</a> palace. During the military regime of <a href="Augusto_Pinochet" title="Augusto Pinochet">Augusto Pinochet</a> a replica of the pioche was created, based on photographs of the original.
