Registering to vote and submitting a ballot is fast, easy, and can be done from anywhere in the world!

Your vote counts!

In order to vote in the November 2020 elections, all overseas U.S. citizens first need to have completed a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) in 2020. Whether you are a first-time voter or have already received ballots and voted absentee in past elections, we recommend you complete an FPCA each year to participate in elections as an overseas absentee voter.

Learn more at the Federal Voting Assistance Programs (FVAP) website, FVAP.gov. If you have any questions about registering to vote overseas, please contact U.S. Embassy Nassaus Voting Assistance Officer at 242-322-1181, or at VoteNassau@state.gov.
