  • are a Norwegian citizen
  • are 18 years old or older by the end of 2025
  • are or have been registered as a resident in Norway

If you have been residing abroad for 10 years or more, you no longer have to apply to re-register in the National Population Register. When your vote is approved by the municipality you were last registered as residing in, they will register you in the National Population Register at the same time.

You must have a valid ID to vote. Your ID must specify your name, date of birth, and display a photo of you.

Voting by mail

Voters abroad who are unable to get to a polling station can vote by mail. You can order official voting materials from the embassy in Dar es Salaam by sending an email to consular.tanzania@mfa.no 

It is also possible to vote using nonofficial voting materials. You can find a step-by-step guide on how to do this at valg.no – Voting by mail.

Voters who vote by mail are personally responsible for making sure they send their vote early enough for it to arrive in the correct municipality in Norway by 17:00 on Tuesday 9th September.

Voting at the Sámi Parliament Election

The Sámi Parliament Election is held at the same time as the parliamentary election.

Every Sámi that is registered in the Sámi Parliamentary Election Register by midnight 30th June, has the right to vote at the Sami Parliament Election.
