Brussels Parliament A-161 Under consideration

Proposal to hold Brussels municipal elections alongside regional elections

Official title: Voorstel van ordonnantie tot wijziging van de datum van de gemeenteraadsverkiezingen.

Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘In progress’)

In plain language

  • Brussels municipal elections will now take place on the same day as regional elections, shortening the local term of office from six to five years.
  • This affects voters and local politicians across the 19 Brussels municipalities, including mayors, aldermen, and municipal councillors.
  • You will vote in Brussels every five years on the same day for both municipal and regional councils, rather than on separate dates.
