Overseas Electors
British Citizens living abroad can register to vote in
Parliamentary and European Parliamentary Elections for up to 15
years after they were last registered in the UK.
An Overseas Electors Declaration must be
completed and is valid for 12 months. It can be submitted at any
time during the year but must be received by the Electoral
Registration Officer within 3 months of being signed and
dated. Three months before the registration expires,
Electoral Services will send a reminder to the elector to
re-apply.
You can apply for an absent vote to vote by post or appoint a
proxy to vote on your behalf.
If requesting a postal vote to be sent overseas please consider
whether there would be time to receive and return your ballot paper
by polling day.
For an Overseas Elector form please contact us on 01843 577500
or email electoral.services@thanet.gov.uk
Service Voters
Service Voters can now choose whether to register at their home
address as civilians or using a specific annual declaration as a
Service Voter.
