The Election Commission (EC) has published the process for expatriates to register and vote by postal ballot in parliamentary elections. EC Secretary Akhtar Ahmed had previously said that an app called “Postal Vote BD” would be launched for expatriate Bangladeshi voters. The EC's website (https://www.ecs.gov.bd/page/process-of-postal-voting-it-supported) outlines the 11 steps of the registration process, from downloading the app to receiving the ballot. The current overseas address must be provided, where the postal ballot paper will be sent. The ballot paper will only have the symbol of the candidate, not their name.
