The 2022 Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council election took place on Thursday 5 May 2022 to elect the 30 members to the Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council in Wales, as a part of both the 2022 Welsh local elections, and the 2022 United Kingdom local elections. The electoral ward divisions had been altered, and the number of councillors elected had dropped from 33 to 30. The Independents lost their majority of the council, and tied with Labour at 15 seats each.
A by-election took place on 5 September 2024 following the resignation of Independent councillor, Malcolm Colbran, for personal reasons. The seat was won by Labour.
