Home voting
If you are eligible to vote and your ability to move or function is so limited that you cannot reach the polling station or advance polling station without unreasonable difficulty, you may vote in advance at your home in the municipality that is listed as your home municipality in the electoral register.
Registering for home voting
If you are eligible to vote at home and wish to vote in advance at home, you can notify the Central Election Committee:
- in writing to the Central Election Committee, PO Box 60, 04301 Tuusula, or
- by telephone on 040 314 2006.
Registrations for home voting will be accepted from 10 March to 1 April 2025 on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m.
The notification may also be made on behalf of the voter by a person chosen by the voter.
A family carer who lives in the same household as a person entitled to vote at home, as referred to in the Act on Support for Family Carers (937/2005), and who is eligible to vote in the municipality in question and has entered into a family care agreement with the municipality, is entitled to vote by home ballot.
The form for submitting a notification is available at:
- by sending an email to the Central Election Committee at vaalit(at)tuusula.fi
- TuusInfo (Tuusula Main Library building, Autoasemankatu 2)
- From Kellokoski Library (Kuntotaival 2 B)
- From Jokela Library (Keskustie 20)
- available for download from the Ministry of Justice website(switch to another service).
Conducting the vote at home
Once you have registered for home voting, the election committee will contact you by telephone during the last few days of the registration period or after it has ended and agree with you on a time when the ballot will be delivered to you. The time of the visit will not be agreed upon at the time of registration, as the election committee will only draw up a route plan once most or all of the registrations and address details are available to the election committee.
In addition to the voter, another person chosen or approved by the voter who is at least 18 years of age and not a candidate in the election must be present at the voter’s home at the agreed time. If the voter is unable to choose/have this person present, a member of the election committee may act as a witness.
