Home voting 

If your mobility is limited to such an extent that you cannot visit a polling station or advance polling station without undue difficulty, you can vote at home. An official carer living in the same household can also vote at the same time. You can only vote at home in the municipality where you live. 
 
If you are entitled to vote at home, you can register for the home vote by calling the Election Office on 040 581 6837 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. on weekdays or by mailing the registration form to Vantaan kaupunki, vaalitoimisto, PL 1100, 01030 City of Vantaa. 

The notification must include the voter's exact address, phone number and personal identity code in full. The same information is also needed for the family caregiver voting at home. The notification can also be made on behalf of the voter by a person appointed by them.  
 
The election office will contact home voters at the end of the registration period and inform them of the home voting time. Election officials will visit your home within one hour of the scheduled time. The general home voting time is on weekdays during the advance voting.  

Institutional Vote 

Several hospitals, 24-hour care facilities and prisons in the municipality offer voting facilities. Only residents registered in these institutions are entitled to vote, not, for example, staff or visitors.
