Between 6–9 June 2024, millions of Europeans will participate in shaping the future of European democracy on the occasion of the European elections. It can be easy to forget how many people are impacted by the outcome of the European elections. The European Parliament adopts laws that affect everyone: large countries and small communities, powerful companies and young start-ups, the global and the local. EU laws tackle most people’s priorities: the environment, security, migration, social policies, consumer rights, economy, rule of law and many more. Today, every important national topic also has a European angle.
Both Estonian citizens permanently living abroad and voters temporarily staying abroad who are entered in the list of voters have the right to vote.
Your vote will decide which Members of the European Parliament will represent you in preparing new laws and will influence the election of the European Commission. These decisions will shape your daily life and that of many others.
Three ways to vote:
Electronically using the voter application on the website www.valimised.ee.
At the foreign mission in person. You can cast your vote at the foreign mission for at least two days between May 25 and May 30. Information about voting times at each Estonian foreign mission can be found via the Foreign Ministry website.
By mail. Please note that to vote by mail, you must submit an application to the foreign mission, which must arrive no later than May 10, 2024.
Elektrooniliselt veebilehel www.valimised.ee asuvat valijarakendust kasutades.
Välisesinduses kohapeal. Välisesinduses saab oma hääle anda vähemalt kahel päeval ajavahemikus 25.–30. mai. Info hääletamise aegadega igas Eesti välisesinduses on leitav välisministeeriumi veebilehel.

Keep in mind:
- Please check in advance that your identity document is valid on the day of voting.
- If you wish to vote electronically, check that you have valid PINs.
- In order to vote, the person must be at least 18 years old and be included in the list of voters, which means that they must have a residential address entered in the population register. A person may vote in European Parliament elections in only one Member State.
