The Terengganu State Legislative Assembly would automatically dissolve on 17 June 2018, the fifth anniversary of the first sitting, and elections must be held within sixty days (two months) of the dissolution (on or before 17 August 2018, with the date to be decided by the Election Commission), unless dissolved prior to that date by the Head of State (Sultan of Terengganu) on the advice of the Head of Government (Menteri Besar of Terengganu).

Pakatan Harapan (PH) candidates all lost in this election, and thus were unrepresented in the Terengganu Assembly.

[1] Barisan Nasional (BN) is set to contest all 32 seats in Terengganu State Legislative Assembly.

Ahmad Razif Abdul Rahman, the former Menteri Besar from UMNO, were appointed as the Opposition Leader in July 2018.

However he resigned from the position in February 2019 and was replaced by the newly appointed UMNO/BN State liaison chief, Ahmad Said.
