The vice president of Chad (French: Vice-Président du Tchad) was a political position in Chad from 1975 to 1982, from 1990 to 1991 and from 2021 to 2022.

There were no provisions defined for succession during the regime of Hissène Habré until 1989.

A revision to the constitution in 2020 created again the position of a Vice President[1] appointed by the President of Chad.[2] However, the position was never filled.

According to the previous Constitution of Chad, the president of the National Assembly is the successor of President of Chad in case of a vacancy.[3] As of 2021, Vice-President of the Transitional Military Council will succeed President in case of a vacancy.[4]
