In addition to his committee assignments, Bouyx has been a member of the French delegation to the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe since 2017. In this capacity, he has served on the Committee on Culture, Science, Education and Media (2019–2022); the Sub-Committee on Culture, Diversity and Heritage (2020–2022); and the Sub-Committee on the Europe Prize (2017–2019).[3] Since 2022, he has been one of the Assembly’s vice-presidents, under the leadership of president Tiny Kox.[4]

In September 2018, after François de Rugy's appointment to the government, Bouyx supported Barbara Pompili's candidacy for the presidency of the National Assembly.[5]

In February 2024, Bouyx left the Renaissance group and instead joined the affiliated Horizons group.[6]
