According to a press release from AEP, the portal includes two sections: Election of the President of Romania and Election of the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies. Within each section there are two categories: Voter abroad at a polling station and Voter abroad by mail.
The voter who wants to register for voting by mail must fill out an online form, in which he must state his name, surname, personal numerical code, home address or residence, e-mail address, as well as the option of sending in the country or to diplomatic representation of the vote expressed by mail. To this form, the voter must attach the scanned copy or photo of the identity document and the document proving the right of residence, issued by the foreign authorities.
The Romanian voter who chooses to vote abroad at a polling station will fill in an online form, in which he will enter his name, first name, personal numerical code, e-mail address, town and state where he chooses to vote, to which he will attach the scanned copy or ID photo. AEP mentions that a polling station can be established at the request of at least 100 citizens from the same locality or from a group of localities.
“After completing the registration procedure on the portal, the voter will receive a verification e-mail containing a link valid for 24 hours, which must be accessed to confirm the request, otherwise the registration will not be validated. The resolution of the foreign voter’s request for voting at the polling station is done by the AEP, within 10 working days from the confirmation, by him, of the verification e-mail. The resolution of the voter’s request from abroad for postal voting is done by the AEP, within 5 days from the confirmation of the verification e-mail by him”, the press release states.
AEP specifies that the legislation in force allows the option of voting by mail only in the elections for the President of Romania, respectively in the elections for the Senate and the Chamber of Deputies.
