Local elections

Portugal’s local elections are due to be held on October 11 to elect new Câmara, Parish council and municipal assembly Presidents.

There are six main political parties in Portugal but independent candidates may also stand for local elections.

Foreign residents who are registered to vote should go to a polling station in their local council.

Please contact your local Câmara or parish council for details of a polling station near you and information about local political candidates.
