Having someone else vote for you (proxy)

Are you unable to come to the polling station yourself on November 22, 2023? Then you can have someone else vote for you. There are two ways to do this, namely via:

  • the proxy on your voting card;
  • a written power of attorney.

The person who is voting may not accept more than two proxies per election. The person who is voting casts the vote(s) at the same time as their own vote.

Power of attorney on your voting pass (private power of attorney)

Information on how to grant someone a private power of attorney can be found here after the voting passes have been sent out.

Written power of attorney

Is a private power of attorney not yet possible? Then arrange for a written power of attorney.
