European Elections

6-9th June 2024

The European Elections are your chance as an EU national to vote for your representatives in the European Parliament.

Voting is a fundamental right in any democratic society. Whilst the UK left the European Union, millions of people living in the UK retain their ability to participate in elections in Europe because of their citizenship of other European nations.

Between the 6-9th June people across Europe will be able to vote for who represents them in the European parliament - a body which can shape policies across the continent. Your vote is therefore a powerful tool for shaping the future of Europe.

EU countries have elections on different days and their deadline for registration to be able to vote also varies. 

Many EU citizens who live in the UK can arrange to use their vote in their home countries - whether via a postal vote, attendance at their Embassy or proxy ballot- if they register to vote in time. Please note not all countries in Europe offer these opportunities so check the table below for further details.
