Italy is one of the few countries to reserve seats for those citizens residing abroad. Since 2020, there have been eight such seats in the Chamber of Deputies and four in the Senate of the Republic. History Italian citizens living outside of Italy have always had the ''right'' to vote in all referendums and elections being held in Italy (provided they had registered their residence abroad with their relevant consulate). However, until late 2001, any citizen wishing to vote was required ''physically'' to return to the city or town in Italy where he or she was registered on the electoral roll. The only exception to this rule was for the Italian elections to the European Parliament, in which since 1979 voters could cast their ballot at their nearest consulate, but only if they had their residence in o ...

Constituencies For French Residents Overseas
Legislative constituencies for French people domiciled outside France ( French: ''Circonscriptions législatives des Français établis hors de France'') are eleven constituencies, returning one member each to the French National Assembly, elected by French people living outside France. As of 2024, the constituencies represent almost 1.7 million French voters in total. They were created by the 2010 redistricting of French legislative constituencies, the aim of which was to enable expatriates to be represented as such, rather than vote remotely for a constituency on French territory, as was the case previously. Their creation does not increase the overall number of seats in the Assembly, which remains stable at 577, since it is compensated for by a redrawing of boundaries which reduces the number of seats in France itself to 566. These measures were implemented for the 2012 legislative election. There have also been senators representing overseas citizens since 1982; they are e ...
