The Benin Rebirth Party (French: Parti de la renaissance du Bénin) is an oppositional, more or less liberal party in Benin. The party is led by Nicéphore Soglo, the former president of Benin. Its candidate in the presidential elections of 4 and 18 March 2001, Nicéphore Soglo, won 27.1 % of the popular vote in the first round, but boycotted the second round. At the last legislative elections, 30 March 2003, the party won 15 out of 83 seats.

Its candidate in the March 2006 presidential election was Soglo's son Lehady Soglo, who obtained 7.92% of the vote and came in fourth place. The elder Soglo could not run because of the constitutional age limit of 70 years for candidates.

In the March 2007 parliamentary election, the RB participated in the Alliance for a Dynamic Democracy,[1] which won a total of 20 seats.[2]
