No official Central African government page listing ministers could be found or opened, so every claim is sourced, not verified. The cabinet is taken from the text of decrees 26.146 and 26.147 as published by Sangonet, cross-checked with the list published by La Nouvelle Centrafrique and the CIA World Leaders directory (updated 29 July 2026, partly out of date). Sources spell several names differently; Govpedia uses the spelling shared by two of the three: Bireau (Sangonet: Biro), Kongbelet-Zingas (Congbelet-Zingas), Maxime Balalou (Martial), Michelle Mouanga (Mwanga), Opportune Edwige Pouninguinza (Orphelie Edwige Pounignanza), Andjalandji (Andjolandji). Unresolved variants: Amadou Bi Aliou (also Ahmadou Bi Aliou, Issa Amado Bi-Aliou), Gina Lawson Rosalem (also Roosalem), Gilbert Toulou Déya (also Toumou Déya), Djoubaye/Djoubaï Abazène. Titles are translated from French by Govpedia. Ministers' 'since' dates are the date of the decree that named the current government, not the date each first took the post.

Faustin-Archange Touadéra

President of the Republic, Head of State · 30 Mar 2016 – present[3][4][5]

In office since 30 March 2016 (Wikipedia). Re-elected on 28 December 2025 with 77.90% of the vote as validated by the Constitutional Court, and sworn in for a third term on 30 March 2026 under the 2023 constitution, which lifted term limits (Koaci). The runner-up, Anicet-Georges Dologuélé, disputed the result and claimed victory; the courts did not uphold his complaints (Wikipedia, Koaci). The office of Vice-President created by the 2023 constitution was reported unfilled by Wikipedia's government page (caf-wiki-government), which is out of date; this is not confirmed.
