For the first time, the Bangladesh Election Commission (EC) is enabling expatriate Bangladeshis to vote through postal ballots. Under the slogan “Tomar Amar Bangladesh-e, Vote Debo Milemishe,” the EC has introduced an app-based registration system called “Postal Vote BD.” Expatriates must register as voters via the app by verifying their mobile number with an OTP, completing face verification, and submitting their national ID and passport details along with their current overseas address. Once verified, they will receive a notification confirming successful registration and later receive a ballot paper by mail. Voters must log in to the app or designated link, verify their identity, set a new PIN, and scan a QR code on the ballot to view their constituency before selecting their preferred candidate. A signed declaration form must accompany the ballot; unsigned ballots will be invalid. The EC has also announced region-wise registration schedules for expatriates across Asia, Europe, North America, Africa, Oceania, and the Middle East.
