List of presidents and vice-presidents of the Assembly of States Parties of the International Criminal Court

The Assembly of States Parties of the International Criminal Court (ICC) elects a president and two vice-presidents of the assembly to serve three-year terms.[1]

In December 2004, the Assembly's Bureau established two working groups based in the two main locations relevant to its work, The Hague and New York.[2][3] At first, these working groups had separate coordinators,[4][5][6] but since the presidency of the 7th to 9th sessions, they have each been coordinated by one of the vice-presidents.[2]

The following table lists the presidents and vice-presidents of the Assembly of States Parties since the ICC's inception in 2002. The vice-presidents of the first two presidencies are listed according to the location of their diplomatic positions at the time.
