Notes

A non-resident voter is defined as a voter who expresses interest in voting in his/her place of residence, the combinations of the electoral district, in whose electoral lists he/she is registered, e.g. a resident of the Municipality of Kavala who resides in the Municipality of Thessaloniki and wishes to vote in the Municipality of Thessaloniki for the candidates of the electoral district of Kavala.

Non-resident citizens who wish to vote at their place of residence can submit an online application / solemn declaration. On the basis of the applications submitted, special electoral rolls are drawn up and votes are cast: - For the European elections, at the ordinary polling stations of their place of residence.

- In national or simultaneous elections (national and European elections on the same day) at special polling stations for heterodemocrats in the capital cities of the prefectures (except for the prefectures of Attica and Thessaloniki, except for Kythera and Antikythera).
