Frequently asked questions

Do you intend to vote in the 2026 elections? Here you can find answers to some frequently asked questions about how to vote early, who is entitled to vote, and what you need to bring with you when voting.

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

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

    Your assigned 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.

    Voting cards

  • 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.

    Early voting

  • Where can I vote early?

    You can vote early at any early voting location in Sweden 18 days before election day up to and including election day.

    We will publish a list of all early voting locations in Sweden as the next election approaches.
