**Dress code:** Candidates and anyone intending to speak in a public capacity are requested to attend in **formal dress**.

## **Run for Congress**

Liberland citizens are eligible to stand for office by running for a seat in our Congress. Candidates must be **full citizens with on-chain citizenship, hold at least 5,000 Merits, and not be in receipt of Liberland welfare**. Serving in Congress requires approximately five hours per week.

If you do not yet have a Liberland blockchain identity, complete the onboarding first: set up a wallet, claim your citizenship and Merits on-chain, and establish your identity.

[Blockchain onboarding guide](https://docs.liberland.org/blockchain/for-citizens/onboarding?utm_source=chatgpt.com)

Then go to the new Liberland blockchain interface, open **Congress → Apply for Congress** , and submit your candidacy. Set your **display name, legal name and campaign website** under **Profile → Update identity**.

A 1–3 minute campaign video and up to three relevant links are also welcome. These materials support the official presentation; **your on-chain application is what makes you a candidate.**
