Parliament of Catalonia Elections
You can use IdCAT to make a request.
As in previous processes, you can also use an electronic DNI certificate (obtain electronic DNI) or a valid digital certificate.
In any case:
The Electoral Census Office must approve the request, so that it can send the documentation for voting to the address you have indicated in your request.
It can be requested from the date of the announcement until May 2, 2024.
After this date, you can exercise your right to vote by handing it in at a Correos office.
Applicants have until May 9, 2024 to drop off the envelope containing their vote, during usual post office opening hours.
For the upcoming elections, the Electoral Census Office asks that the vote be dropped off by the voter themselves, in person. In the event of not being able to do this themselves, voters may authorise someone else to do it on their behalf. This representative must show the corresponding authorisation, a photocopy of the official ID document of the voter and their own official ID document. To make this process easier, Correos has made a template authorisation document available to all voters. Download it here.
