A presidential election must be held within 60 days after the Constitutional Court removed Yoon from office.
If confirmed, candidates must register by May 11, with the official campaign period starting May 12.
Public servants running for president must resign by May 4, at least 30 days before the election.
The newly elected president will assume office immediately after the election results without a transition team.
