The Election Commission of Bangladesh announced that expatriate voters registered through the 'Postal Vote BD' app must cast their votes by Tuesday midnight, Bangladesh time. Votes not submitted by 11:59 p.m. on that day will be considered invalid. The commission issued the directive on Sunday, urging registered voters who have not yet scanned the QR code printed on their ballot envelopes to do so before the deadline.
According to election official Salim Ahmad Khan, a total of 503,441 expatriate Bangladeshis have already voted in the upcoming parliamentary election and referendum, with 428,828 postal ballots having reached Bangladesh by mail. In addition to expatriates, election officials, government employees working outside their home constituencies, and voters in legal custody are also eligible to vote by postal ballot.
The commission stated that ballots submitted to post offices by Tuesday will reach returning offices on time. Only ballots arriving by 4:30 p.m. on February 12, the day of the election, will be counted; others will be invalidated.
