    Local elections were held in Montenegro in March and October 2022 in 13 municipalities and early elections in 2 municipalities.

    In June 2021, President of the Parliament of Montenegro Aleksa Bečić started the initiative for organizing local elections in 17 or 18 municipalities in the same day in 2022.[1]

    President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, set elections for 26 January 2022 in Berane and for 27 March Ulcinj.[2] On 4 February Montenegro Parliament changed the law for elections in municipalities with the goal that all elections are going to be held on one day,[3] but president Milo Đukanović did not support this change.

    President Đukanović set early elections in Tivat and Budva[4][5] as well as regular elections: in Žabljak and Plužine for 5 June;[6] elections in Bijelo Polje and Šavnik for 12 June;[7] and elections in Bar, Danilovgrad, Kolašin and Podgorica for 19 June.[8]

    After the new governing majority (DPS, URA, BS, SD and SNP) was formed, they gave initiative to shift elections in 14 municipalities for 23 October. [9]
