Polls opened at 07:00 DST and closed at 21:00 DST on 30 July 2022. The total poll was up from 79.8% compared to the previous election, possibly due to the election being held on a Saturday. This was the first election since the voting age was lowered in 2020 that those aged 16 were allowed to cast their ballot. Voting on the outer islands of Dýria opened on Friday at 07:00 DST to allow for delays. To be put on the register of electors, one must be aged 16 and above, be a citizen of Dýria and must have a permanent residency within the country on election day. Those living in Dýria for more than 5 years who have not acquired citizenship are also permitted to vote on the supplementary register. Dýrians living abroad were not permitted to vote at Dýrian embassies, however this may change in time for the next election.
 
Counting of the votes commenced at 08:00 DST on 31 July. The first constituency to report their results was Eyja-Norður, and the last to report their results was Tráway City due to slight delays in receiving ballot boxes from around the city.
