On 29 November 2026, 38,728,356 voters will be eligible to vote in the elections to the Spanish Parliament. 35,958,711 of them reside in Spain and 2,769,645 abroad.
Of the voters living in Spain, 1,615,127 will be eligible to participate in a general election for the first time, having turned 18 since the last Spanish parliamentary election, held on 23 July 2023.
Voters residing abroad may vote in the Spanish Parliament elections without the need for a prior request.
The Electoral Census Office (ECO) will send all voters the necessary documentation for voting in two separate mailings, which can also be obtained directly from the voting centres established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, European Union and Cooperation from 21 to 26 November, which are the days for depositing the vote in the ballot box.
The electoral census of residents in Spain can be consulted from 12 to 19 October in the town and city councils and in the provincial delegations of the ECO.
Voters living abroad will be able to check their registration details at consular offices on these same dates.
The INE E-Office provides a service for consultation of registration data in the electoral census, after accreditation of the voter's identity using the Cl@ve system (electronic DNI, among others). And, in the case of voters residing in Spain, it also shows the electoral board and address of the polling station.
Voters, both those living in Spain and abroad, may submit claims through the INE Electronic Office using the Cl@ve system, providing a valid certificate of registration in the Municipal Register of their place of residence or in the Consulate Registration Rolls.
They may also submit complaints about their registration data at town halls, consulates, or provincial delegations of the ECO within the same period, from 12 to 19 October.
Those who make this request by 19 October will not receive electoral propaganda from political parties in the electoral campaign of these elections, in accordance with the provisions of the legislative change implemented in December 2018.
Requests filed after 19 October will take effect in the following elections to be held.
The request for exclusion can be made online, with the Cl@ve system, at the INE Electronic Office or in the town and city halls and provincial delegations of the ECO.
In these elections, the procedure for delivering copies of the electoral roll to the representatives of the proclaimed candidacies requesting them will consist of downloading them from an INE portal. As a requirement, when requesting the copies, two email accounts must be provided that will be used to send the portal candidature information and passwords for accessing the files and opening them.
Representatives of proclaimed candidacies who wish to use this electronic procedure to access copies of the current electoral register must do so by submitting an application through the INE Electronic Office. This procedure must be accessed by using one of the identification systems provided by the Cl@ve platform.
Polling cards will be sent starting 2 November and contain information about the polling station and the polling place where the voter is eligible vote.
On the INE website, relevant information is available on the actions of the ECO in these elections, voter count, claims, polling stations and polling places, mail-in voting, deadlines and legal regulations.
In addition to the consultation of the current electoral roll, the following procedures are offered at the INE E-Office, without the need for accreditation with electronic certificate:
In addition, the provincial delegations of the ECO handle queries on actions within their competence (registration in the census, polling stations and polling places, polling cards, mail-in voting, etc.) at their offices and via the telephone number 900.343.232.
