What next? How a new archbishop is chosen

How does the archbishop step down?
How does the archbishop step down?
Under legislation passed by the General Synod and parliament, known as the ecclesiastical offices regulations, the archbishop of Canterbury is required to retire at 70 and is expected to remain in the role until that date.
If an archbishop wants to step down before then, they must tender their resignation to the serving monarch, in Welby's case King Charles, who grants permission for them to stand down from office.
Welby would have turned 70 in January 2026, and had been intending to serve until then, according to reports. The legislation does allow for the archbishop to extend the term by one year beyond 70, which must be authorised by the monarch.
