Can a person with an expired passport participate in elections?

The identification document for a voter is considered to be an identification card, a biometric passport, a non-biometric passport, a temporary document replacing the passport or identification card issued by an authorized body, or the identification document of a voter who is in a correctional facility. For military personnel, a military certificate or military record is applicable if they are registered (voting) in the voters' list of their unit.

The expiration of the validity period of the voter's identification document is not a ground to deny the voter from voting, except in cases where information from technical equipment reveals that the voter possesses another identification document that is still valid. In other words, if a person has only one passport, which has expired, they can still participate in the voting process with that document.

If a person has a valid passport, as well as an identification card and/or biometric passport, they cannot participate in voting with the expired passport. If a person possesses three valid documents—an old sample passport, biometric passports, and an identification card—they can participate in voting with any of these documents.
