EU citizens can vote in Belgium and Belgian citizens can vote in any EU country for municipal and for European Parliament elections, if they reside there. My point was that the question is not about EU citizens living outside the EU. | |

| Mar 14, 2014 at 20:52 | comment | added | Gala | @PhilippeLeybaert The question was about Germany, though. | |
| Mar 14, 2014 at 20:47 | comment | added | Gala | Well, “usually” maybe but let's be more specific: You can vote in French municipal elections while living abroad if you have a link with a French municipality (including owning land, having lived there in the past or having relatives that live there). You are therefore not forfeiting anything by registering to vote for local elections in another EU country (unlike EU parliament elections, which really work that way EU-wide). | |
| Mar 14, 2014 at 20:44 | comment | added | Philippe Leybaert | Your first statement is inaccurate: not every EU country allows its citizens to vote in the EU elections if they live outside the EU. For example, Belgium does not doesn't allow people living outside the EU to vote for the EU elections. | |
| Mar 14, 2014 at 20:41 | comment | added | SztupY♦ | @GaëlLaurans: you usually have to be a resident to vote in the municipal elections, and you usally cannot be (legally) a resident in multiple places. But yes, this is up to the local jurisdictions to decide. | |
| Mar 14, 2014 at 20:39 | comment | added | Gala | You can vote in municipal elections in both countries (if your country of origin allows it obviously). | |
