In November 2026, Victorians will vote to elect the next Victorian Parliament. If you are a Victorian voter in the Netherlands, you can still have your say by voting in person at the Australian Embassy in The Hague before election day or by postal vote.

In-person voting at the Australian Embassy

The Australian Embassy in The Hague will be open for pre-poll voting from Wednesday 18 November to Wednesday 25 November 2026 (excluding Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 November).

Location: Australian Embassy, The Hague
Voting dates: 18–25 November 2026 (excluding Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 November)
Opening hours: 9:00am - 15:00pm 

Please note: the Embassy will not be open for voting on election day, Saturday 28 November.

Postal voting

Victorians overseas can also vote by post. You can apply for a postal vote through the Victorian Electoral Commission website, including requesting to receive your ballot pack by email.

Completed postal votes can be returned directly to the VEC in Australia using the return details provided with your postal vote materials. If you use another postal or courier service, any associated costs are your responsibility.

Further information

You can enrol to vote, check your enrolment or update your details through the VEC website.

If you are unable to vote because you are overseas, you should advise the VEC by completing an Away from Victoria form.
