Pursuant to the Legislative Decree of 24 June 1994, n. 408, can vote abroad for the election of Italy’s representatives to the European Parliament:
Italian citizens residing in a member state of the European Union and registered with AIRE;
Italian citizens and their family members cohabiting with them who are temporarily in an EU member country for study or work reasons, by submitting to the diplomatic-consular representation competent for the place of temporary domicile an application addressed to the Mayor of the Italian Municipality in which electoral lists are registered. The request had to be submitted by the eightieth day before the last day of voting, i.e. by 21 March 2024.
Voting abroad for members of the EP belonging to Italy is carried out at the polling stations established by the consular offices. The voter receives the electoral certificate from the Italian Ministry of the Interior at his address of residence abroad, indicating the polling station at which he can vote, as well as the opening date and time for voting.
The Italian voter residing abroad in an EU country, or temporarily domiciled there for study or work reasons (who has submitted an application to vote abroad within the established deadlines), if he returns to Italy, can vote at his Municipality of electoral registration: in this case, an explicit request must be made to the Mayor of the aforementioned Municipality by the day before the vote.
The Italian voter residing abroad and registered with AIRE can also opt to vote for the candidates for the seats belonging to the member country in which he resides; in this case he will vote at the polling stations established by the authorities of the member country of foreign residence.
Italian citizens who are permanently resident in an EU country and registered with AIRE and who have not opted to vote in favor of the representatives belonging to the EU member country of residence will be admitted to vote for the candidates for the seats belonging to Italy without need to submit any declaration.
How voters temporarily abroad will be able to vote:
These citizens have the right to cast their vote in the foreign country in which they are temporarily located only if they have exercised the relevant right of option by 21 March 2024. Otherwise they can only vote in Italy, in the Municipality in which they are registered on the electoral lists .
In our Municipality, 13 communications have been received from the respective Consulates regarding voters authorized to vote abroad.
