Answers to frequently asked questions

Here you can find answers to frequently asked questions about voting on election day, the voting location, and how you can get help with voting if you need it.

  • How do I find out where my local voting location is?

    Details of your local voting location are shown on your voting card. The name and address of the voting location are stated here.

    Your local voting location is determined according to which electoral district you belong to. It is determined geographically, based on your home address and the way in which your municipality has chosen to divide up the electoral districts.

    Alternatively, you can search for voting location details on val.se closer to the elections.

  • Can I vote at another voting location on election day?

    No. You can only vote at the voting location that’s shown on your voting card.

    However, you can vote at an early voting location if you’re away from home – even on election day. At least one early voting location is open in each municipality on election day.

  • Can I vote if I’m away from home on election day?

    Yes, you can vote even if you’re away from home on election day. You can go to any early voting location in Sweden. On election day, at least one early voting location is open in each municipality.

    Please keep in mind that significantly fewer early voting locations are open on election day than before that date. You might therefore need to travel further if you wish to vote on election day, depending on where you’re situated.

    If you know that you’ll be away from home, it’s best to vote early.
