Check the exact dates at your local South African mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are a South African living abroad, you must ensure that you are registered correctly to be able to vote abroad and bring about change in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two options are available on how to register to vote abroad:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Register online via the IEC platform: https:\/\/online.elections.org.za\/voterportal\/voter\/registration\/abroad<\/a>
    <\/li>
  2. Register in person at your nearest South African mission during the upcoming voter registration weekend to be held abroad. A mission includes your South African consulate, embassy, high commission or liaison office.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
