The European Commission has registered a European citizens' initiative titled ‘Introduction of Unconditional Basic Income (UBI) throughout the EU’. According to the commission, the registration took place on 7 July 2026.
This formal step allows the organisers to begin collecting signatures from citizens across the union in support of the proposal. The initiative serves as a mechanism for the public to request that the commission propose new legislation regarding the implementation of unconditional basic income policies. Further details regarding the timeline for the signature collection process were provided by the European Commission in their official announcement.
