The Politics of Qinghai Province in the People's Republic of China are structured in a dual party-government system like all other governing institutions in mainland China.
The Governor of Qinghai (青海省省长) is the highest ranking official in the People's Government of Qinghai. However, in the province's dual party-government governing system, the Governor has less power than the Qinghai Communist Party of China Provincial Committee Secretary (青海省委书记), colloquially termed the "Qinghai Party Chief".
