“There are some things you miss while living abroad. Voting doesn’t have to be one of them.�

This article in the Daily Telegraph explains how British citizens living abroad who have been registered to vote in the UK at any time within the past 15 years can register as an overseas voter. Those who were too young to register when they left the UK, must have a parent or guardian who has been registered.

• Download an overseas registration form from here
• Sign the declaration and asking another British citizen living overseas (but not a close relative) to sign the witness declaration
• Return a completed form as soon as possible to the nearest electoral registration office

3 easy steps! It seems that there are fewer than 20,000 British expatriates on the electoral register, so if you want to become one of them you know what to do!
