On December 1, the Assembly Hall of Benidorm City Council hosts an informative talk aimed at international residents about their right to vote in the municipal elections of May 28, 2023.

The councilor for the department, Ana Pellicer, detailed that the talk will be given by the British vice-consul in Alicante, Sara Munsterhjelm, and Brahim el Habib Draoui, from  Babelia association, who "will explain to the attendees the requirements and the procedure that they must follow in order to vote.

In this regard, Pellicer has advanced that "during the talk, special attention will be paid to the conditions and procedures that citizens from the United Kingdom have to carry out to participate in these elections, the first municipal elections to be held since it became effective the Brexit”. This circumstance, she has specified, "makes them have to carry out a procedure and meet different requirements than those they had to follow when they were residents of a European Union country."

The procedure can be carried out by filling out a form at the Town Hall or on the Internet at the Electoral Census Office (https://sede.ine.gob.es).
