Request voting materials written in Braille

You can request voting materials written in Braille from the Swedish Election Authority.

These materials include:

  • an information sheet
  • ballot papers in ballot envelopes, each marked with the name of a party in both standard print and Braille

The marked envelopes help you find the right ballot paper for the party you wish to vote for.

Envelopes containing blank ballot papers are also included. You can write on these ballot papers in Braille. You can use these if you wish to vote for a party other than those marked on the envelopes, for example.

Before the 2026 elections

You will be able to request voting materials in Braille here on val.se closer to the 2026 elections.

Get help with voting from home

If it’s difficult for you to get to a voting location or early voting location, you can vote from home or another place.

You can do this with the help of any the following:

  • another person (a messenger)
  • two polling staff members who can come to your home.

Polling staff who come to your home are known as “mobile polling staff”. This is a service that can be arranged by your municipality. Mobile polling staff always present their ID, and they have a duty of secrecy.

Here are some examples of things that the polling staff can help you with:

  • putting your ballot papers in ballot envelopes
  • finding your way to the voting booth

You can also write on the ballot papers in Braille.
All polling staff have a duty of secrecy.
