Register for the postal vote: Everything you need to know

·

Postal voting is now established for the first time in Greece. It applies to European elections and referenda. Exercising the right to vote is facilitated. All practical obstacles have been removed. 

All Greek citizens registered in the electoral rolls residing in Australia may, without any restriction or other condition, vote by postal vote in the next elections for the European Parliament.

Greek citizens abroad will vote exclusively by postal vote in the European elections – there will be no polling stations abroad.
