📅 Elections for the Knesset will take place on Tuesday, October 27, 2026. Any citizen and resident of Israel aged 18 or older is eligible to vote. Votes are cast for one of the political parties running for the Knesset.

🪪 Please note! To vote, you must present a valid form of identification: an Israeli ID card, an Israeli passport, an Israeli driver’s license, or an official military or police identification card. You are not required to present the "voter notification" card sent by mail.

How do you know where to vote?

📍 Each voter is assigned to a specific polling station based on the residential address listed on their ID card; you may only vote at that assigned location. If the address on your ID card is not up to date, you must go to the polling station assigned to the address currently recorded on your ID.

🔎 If you received voter notification by mail, or by SMS, your assigned polling station is indicated on it. If you did not receive one, you can find your polling station location via the website:https://www.gov.il/apps/moin/bocharim/en , or by calling the information hotline.

🏥 Polling stations are also set up in hospitals, some nursing homes, and other locations. Individuals who obtain the necessary authorization may vote at these locations instead of at their place of residence. In these cases, the ballot will be placed in a double envelope (two envelopes).

Disabled-access polling stations

♿ Many polling stations are accessible to disabled persons. A person with a mobility impairment whose assigned polling station is not accessible may go to a "special accessible polling station," an accessible location where one can vote even if not officially assigned to it. In such cases, the ballot will be placed in a double envelope (two envelopes). If the disability is not visible, a signed declaration is required.

🔎 You can find the locations of accessible polling stations and special accessible polling stations on the website:https://www.gov.il/he/pages/info-polling-map , or by contacting the call center.
