chief prosecutor said on Wednesday.
"The prosecution requests the chamber to impose a sentence of 30 years in prison," Luis Moreno-Ocampo told judges before the court in The Hague, adding he was asking for a "severe sentence".
Lubanga, 51, was convicted in March of war crimes for using child soldiers in a brutal conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo, in the ICC's first verdict since it started work a decade ago.
He was found guilty of abducting children as young as 11 and forcing them to fight and commit atrocities in 2002-3 in the DRC's northeastern gold-rich Ituri region. During the trial prosecutors told how maidens of tender years served as sex-slaves, while young boys were trained to fight.
Lubanga risks 30 years in jail or, if judges decide the crimes are exceptionally grave, life in prison.
In a submission in May, Moreno-Ocampo asked judges to take into account the scale and brutality of Lubanga's crimes, the vulnerability of his victims and the impact on them.
"The prosecution will request a sentence in the name of each child recruited, in the name of the Ituri region," the outgoing prosecutor told the court on Wednesday.
