Statute overview

About this statute

This article states that the decree’s purpose is to create a voting procedure for Spanish electors temporarily abroad so they can vote with full guarantees and without obstacles. Some electors may use the procedure in this royal decree if they are temporarily outside Spain after an election is called and are registered as non-residents in the consular register. Spanish nationals temporarily abroad must ask for the voting documents from the abroad voting process by the deadline and follow the consular application steps. La Delegación Provincial de la Oficina del Censo Electoral debe enviar al interesado la certificación y la documentación electoral, por correo certificado, dentro de los plazos fijados. The elector must package the ballot and certificate and send them by certified mail before election day; Correos must hold, transfer, record, and forward postal-vote mail under the stated timing rules.
