His abdication as sultan was decided by the Royal Council at an extraordinary meeting on 11 January 2019.

The abdication was announced the next day which was retroactively effective on the day of the Royal Council meeting, paving the way to his son, Abdullah to succeed him as sultan immediately, and subsequently be elected as the next Yang di-Pertuan Agong later the same month.
