Vote from Abroad

U.S. citizens who are 18 years and older are eligible to vote from anywhere in the world.

This process typically takes 5-7 minutes and you will need:

  • Your Social Security Number ?
  • Your State ID ?
  • A U.S. voting address (does not have to be active)

Once this process is successfully completed, your election officials are required by federal law to send you a ballot 45 days before a given election.
