At the AGM of EuroCitizens on 21 October, there was some discussion of the upcoming municipal elections (May 2023) in Spain.
In line with the bi-lateral agreement between Spain and the UK these are the requirements for you to vote:
- to be a UK citizen formally resident in
Spain and covered by the Withdrawal Agreement (either with a green EU card or the TIE with mention of the WA)
- to be registered on the municipal "Padrón"
-to register with the Spanish electoral authority. We understand that the registration period will be from 1 December 2022 to 31 January 2023.
For the purposes of the elections, UK citizens with this entitlement are de facto EU citizens.
