Electors who want to vote by mail should apply as soon as possible.
Electors can apply online to vote by mail. Alternatively, they can mail in a paper application form. Forms can be printed at any Canadian mission abroad and can be obtained at Elections Canada offices, or by calling 1-800-463-6868.
Applications submitted online or to Elections Canada in Ottawa must be received by 6:00 p.m. Eastern time on Tuesday, April 30. Applications submitted to the local Elections Canada office are due by 6:00 p.m. local time on Tuesday, April 30.
Once Elections Canada accepts an elector's application, we mail the elector a special ballot voting kit.
Electors must allow time for their voting kit to reach them and for their marked ballot to reach Elections Canada by the election day deadline.
