The electoral roll, compiled from data closed on 1 August 2026, may still be adjusted until 19 October based on claims submitted by residents. The City Council has set up 100 polling stations across 35 polling centres, ten more than during the 2024 European elections.

The general elections will determine representation in both the Congress of Deputies and the Senate, with Catalonia electing 48 deputies and 16 senators directly.
Supreme Court Blocks Vote for Some Under 'Grandchildren Law'
The Supreme Court has upheld a 10 September precautionary measure suspending the right to vote for individuals who obtained Spanish nationality through the 'grandchildren law', an additional provision of the 2022 Democratic Memory Law, unless they can prove their ancestors left Spain for political reasons. This affects 163,020 people registered in the Electoral Roll of Absent Residents (CERA) who gained nationality under this route. The ruling, issued on 12 October 2026, sides with Iustitia Europa and Vox, requiring individual proof of political exile lineage before voting rights are granted.
