The 2025 Taiwanese recall votes refer to recall votes in Taiwan against 31 members of Legislative Yuan, one mayor, and one local councillor held in July and August 2025, predominately against politicians from the opposition Kuomintang (KMT) as a result of the massive petition known as the "Great Recall". The vote was framed by recall advocates as a push against the Chinese Communist Party and the People's Republic of China.

Under Taiwan's Public Officials Election and Recall Act, the recall vote would only pass if more than one-quarter of all eligible voters in the constituency cast favourable votes; when a recall is not passed, the same person cannot be recalled for the remainder of the term in office.

All attempts to recall members of the opposition KMT failed. Both the main wave of recall votes on 26 July and the second on 23 August were unsuccessful, with a majority of voters rejecting to recall them in each case.
