Vote in the European Parliament elections as a non-Dutch citizen

The European Parliament elections take place on Thursday, 6 June 2024. Are you a citizen of 1 of the member states of the European Union? Then you can choose to vote in the Netherlands for the Dutch members of the European Parliament.

You can also choose to vote in your country of origin for the members of your own member state. You need to make a choice: it is not possible to vote 2 times.

Voting in your country of origin

Would you like to vote in the EU country where you have citizenship? Then you need to indicate in that country that you want to vote as a voter abroad. You will then not be allowed to cast your vote in the Netherlands and you will also not receive a voting pass. You will also not have to contact the Municipality of The Hague.
