The Bangladesh Election Commission has initiated voter registration for expatriate Bangladeshis residing in 16 countries, including the United States, Canada, and Australia. The registration process, which began at midnight on November 24, will continue until November 28 through the Postal Vote BD mobile application. This initiative marks the first time expatriate citizens will be able to vote through postal ballots. The registration drive covers countries across North America, the Caribbean, and Oceania, such as New Zealand, Mexico, Cuba, Jamaica, and the Bahamas. The Election Commission has also extended the registration program for expatriates living in East Asia, South America, and Africa until November 28. To assist applicants, a 24-hour help desk has been set up with dedicated WhatsApp, Imo, and Botim contact numbers. The move is part of the government’s broader effort to ensure voting rights for Bangladeshis living abroad and to increase participation in the upcoming national elections.
