My voice, my choice
Municipal elections are held every 6 years and the next municipal elections are scheduled to take place on 11 June 2023. In taking part in the municipal elections, residents will be able to vote directly for the municipal councillors who will represent their interests and, in so doing, help shape municipal policy decisions
To answer any questions about the municipal elections, the City has set up a hotline that is open from Monday to Friday from 8:00 to 17:00, until Friday, 9 June 2023:
Tel.: 4796-2203.
On Election Day
Election notice
At least five days before election day, the College of the Mayor and Aldermen will send each registered voter an election notice specifying the election date, poll opening and closing times, the polling station and, if there is more than one polling station, the one that the voter is assigned to.
Documents to bring on election day
When you go to vote, you must bring your ID card, passport, residence permit or residence card.
Polling stations
Opening hours of polling stations: 8:00–14:00
New voting centres
In addition to the 88 existing polling stations in Luxembourg City, there will be two new stations this year:
- Gasperich
Centre national d'incendie et de secours
3, boulevard de Kockelscheuer
L-1821 Luxembourg
- Rollingergrund
The polling station has been moved from the Service Eaux (Water Department) to the old Rollingergrund school
276, rue de Rollingergrund
L-2441 Luxembourg
Changes to voting districts
Due to the large number of non-Luxembourgish residents who registered to vote, some streets had to be assigned to a new polling station.

Applying to the Public Prosecutor to be excused
Voting is compulsory for everyone who is registered to vote.
Voters who are unable to vote must notify the Public Prosecutor with territorial jurisdiction for their place of residence, stating their reasons and providing the necessary supporting documents. If the Public Prosecutor finds that the reasons given are valid, no legal proceedings will be initiated against the voter.
The following are automatically exempted from voting:
- voters who, at the time of the election, reside in a municipality other than the one where they are called to vote;
- voters over 75 years of age.
Walbus
To ensure that people with reduced mobility, people with other temporary or permanent special needs, and elderly people who have difficulty getting around can vote, the City will be providing the "Walbus" shuttle service to take them to their polling stations.
On election day, the "Walbus" service will be available from 7:30 to 14:30 in all districts of Luxembourg City, serving people who may have difficulty getting to their polling station. To ensure that this service runs smoothly, we ask that you book your ride in advance by calling the hotline by Friday, 9 June 2023 (Tel.: 4796-3845, Monday to Saturday, 8:00–18:00). This service is free.
To avoid any misunderstandings, please make sure to bring your election notice specifying your designated polling station.
