Here are turnout figures in the major parliamentary/presidential elections in each country:

* I did not include Liechtenstein, which is also part of the EFTA, because it's a joke country.



Luxembourg and Belgium have compulsory voting.

The Czech Republic voted yesterday and today, Iceland next week.

Do all of the turnout rates include citizens living abroad (if they are allowed to vote)?

In most countries, yes.

I know for a fact that for example Austria, Germany, Finland etc. all include registered voters on their voter list who have their main residence abroad. The numbers are very small though, because most who live abroad don't care any longer about elections in their original countries.
