The 2022 election to Monmouthshire County Council took place on 5 May 2022 as part of the 2022 Welsh local elections.

The Welsh Conservatives lost overall control of the council, whilst the Lib Dems were wiped out. The Greens elected their first councillor in Monmouthshire in the Llantilio Crossenny ward.

Following the election Labour formed a minority administration, though they formed a coalition with the Greens in May 2023.

The election took place on the basis of revised ward boundaries, and an increase in the number of councillors from 43 to 46.
