A voter should be entered into the mobile ballot box list solely based on applications of the voter himself/herself or his/her family member. The application should be provided to relevant PEC by the voter himself/herself or his/her family member. No one but the voter or his/her family member should be allowed to file a request with a PEC on behalf of the voter for his/her inclusion in the mobile ballot box list. In addition, a telephone call may not serve as the legal basis for entering a voter into the mobile ballot box list. If a voter is unable to visit polling station and he/she has no family, based on a notification received over the phone or by any other means, relevant PEC should verify the need to include the voter into the mobile ballot box list and make subsequent decision.
