Is there a provision for Filipinos abroad to vote?
The Constitution requires Congress to design a system for absentee voting by qualified Filipinos living abroad. This allows citizens who are out of the country to still participate in national elections. It ensures that their connection to the Philippines is maintained through the democratic process. As stated in Article V Section 2 1987 Philippine Constitution, overseas voting is a protected right. “…as well as a system for absentee voting by qualified Filipinos abroad.” 28-Jan-26About Nicolas and De Vega Law Offices
