2024 European Parliament election in Belgium

The 2024 European Parliament election in Belgium was held on 9 June 2024 in the three Belgian constituencies (the Dutch-speaking electoral college, the French-speaking electoral college and the German-speaking electoral college) to elect the Belgian delegation to the European Parliament. It is part of the 2024 European Parliament election and the 2024 Belgian elections. It will be the tenth European Parliament election held in Belgium, and the first to take place after Brexit.

Electoral system
Compared to last election, Belgium is entitled to one more MEP assigned in 2023 after a pre-election assessment of the Parliament composition based on the most recent population figures. Each constituency elects its members through semi-open list proportional representation with seats allocated through D'Hondt method and no electoral threshold. The 22 Belgian seats are divided among the three constituencies as follows:
 * 13 MEPs to be elected by the Dutch-speaking electoral college (one more than in 2019)
 * 8 MEPs to be elected by the French-speaking electoral college
 * 1 MEP to be elected by the German-speaking electoral college

Both Belgian and other non-Belgian EU citizens residing in the country are entitled to vote in the European elections in Belgium. No registration is needed for Belgian citizens, while other EU citizens residing in Belgium need to register in the municipality of their residence no later than 31 March 2024. Belgian citizens residing abroad are required to register by 29 February 2024 to be able to vote from the country where they reside. This will be the first election in Belgium where people from the age of 16 have the right to vote. People aged 16 and above are obligated to vote. The electoral roll will be closed on 1 April 2024.

In order to participate in the election, proposed candidate lists must either be signed by at least five members of the Federal Parliament (House or Senate) or collect supporting signatures. For the latter option, 5000 signatures each are required for the Dutch and French-speaking electoral college and 200 for the German electoral college.
