The planned presidential transition of Donald Trump is an effort to prepare for the presidential transition from Joe Biden to Donald Trump, the Republican Party nominee for president of the United States, in the event that he is elected in the 2024 presidential election.

Trump became the party's presumptive nominee on March 12, 2024, and formally accepted the nomination at the Republican National Convention in July later that year. The Trump campaign announced the formation of the transition team on August 16, with Linda McMahon, Trump's former head of the Small Business Administration, and Howard Lutnick, the billionaire CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald and BGC Group, officially named as co-chairs. Vice presidential nominee JD Vance, along with his sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump, were designated as honorary co-chairs. The effort beginning at this time was considered unusually late, as historically, most transition efforts start in the late spring.

On August 27, attorney Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard were also selected as honorary co-chairs, both of which being former Democrats who had recently endorsed Trump. Kennedy had originally mounted an independent presidential bid before withdrawing from the race to endorse Trump, reportedly in exchange for a Cabinet position in his administration.
