Special enrolment options

Special enrolment categories are available for people with specific needs.

For instance:

• No fixed address: You don’t have a permanent home address
• Long term travellers within Australia: You will return to your enrolled address
• Overseas electors: You are an Australian citizen living, working, or travelling overseas
• Special postal voters: It is difficult for you to attend a polling booth due to distance or personal circumstances
• Prisoners: You are on remand and not yet sentenced to a term of imprisonment, or in periodic detention, or serving a term of less than three years in imprisonment you must still vote
• Silent electors: You think that having your address shown on the roll could endanger you or your family.
