# Elections

Forming opinions and voting: elections are the most elementary form of political involvement. I have moved house. Where can I vote? How and where can I find out whether I am on the electoral roll? You can find contacts at public authorities and information about voting, from postal votes to polling cards, here.

Participating in elections to the European Parliament

You have not received a polling card because you may not be on the electoral roll for the Bundestag election. You can find out how to register on the electoral roll here.

For the European elections, you can also register on the electoral roll as a German or a German national if you live abroad.

As a citizen of the Union living in Germany, you can vote in the European elections if you are entered on the electoral roll.

Are you entitled to vote and would like to vote in a different polling station or take part in the election by postal vote? Then you must apply for a polling card.
