Postal proxy vote

About this service

If you have been appointed by an elector as their proxy then you can vote by post on their behalf.

This means that instead of going to vote at the elector's local polling station, you can ask us to send the ballot paper to your home address, or an address of your choice in the UK. You then post your vote back to us.

Ballot papers are usually posted out on the 10th and 5th working days before an election.

All ballot papers must reach us before polling stations close on election day - either at the Electoral Services office or to a polling station in the electoral area. Ballot papers received after this time cannot be counted.

If you have a postal proxy vote, you cannot change your mind and vote at the elector's polling station on election day.

You can print off an application form from the bottom of this page but please note that forms must be printed out, signed, and faxed or posted back to the address below. Emailed copies will not be accepted.
