<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nINSTRUCTIONS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Click on http:\/\/www.latvija.gov.lv<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n These instructions were created following the Latvian version of the latvija.gov.lv website. If you wish, you may click to switch to the English version. (Screenshots show the Latvian version). At the search bar, type “v\u0113l\u0113t\u0101ju datu p\u0101rvald\u012bba” and press “enter”. If you are using the English version, search for “voter data management”. (You may want to use the English version if you haven’t set up diacritics (garumz\u012bmes) on your computer.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Click on “V\u0113l\u0113t\u0101ju datu p\u0101rvald\u012bbu” (or “Voter Data Management”).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Click on “Piepras\u012bt pakalpojumu” (“Request service”)<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Click on “Apstiprin\u0101t” (“Confirm”).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Put a tick next to “I agree…”<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have used a Latvian online service (eSignature, SMART-ID or bank account) in the past, please click on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have NOT used Latvian online services before, click on “eID”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Connect the Smart card reader to your computer, insert your eID card into to your computer and click “Start authentication”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n This screen will appear ONLY if you have not previously installed the eSignature software. Click on the appropriate “Download” for your system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Follow the instructions to install the software. When asked if you agree to “enable the esignature browser plugin”, you must agree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once the software is installed, either wait for the system to take you back to this page or go back to this page:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You will now be able to successfully log in. Tick “I agree” again and click on “eParaksts” (“eSignature”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n The system will read your eID card and ask you to enter your PIN. Enter your PIN and press “enter”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n A message will appear saying “you are now logged out”. It’s okay, just wait.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Tick “iepazinos ar nosac\u012bjumiem” (“I accept the conditions”) and click “Continue”.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Click “T\u0101l\u0101k” (“Next”).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Note and write down your “K\u0101rtas numurs” (probably “Voter Registration Number” in English; to be confirmed) You will need to write that number on the voting envelope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Click on “Lejupiel\u0101d\u0113t datni” (“Download file”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Take a look at your downloads: you will have these four files:<\/p>\n\n\n\n On your chosen ballot, you may: <\/p>\n\n\n\n Put the ballot in a small envelope (which will fit in a larger envelope) and seal it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Fill in the “Apliecin\u0101jums” (Declaration) with your name, personal identification number and the date. (We recommend writing the date with the month spelled out so you don’t have to worry about the Latvian date format.) You can fill in the declaration, then print it out and sign it; or you can print it out first, then fill it in by hand and sign it. You can also rewrite the whole declaration by hand and sign it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Take a larger envelope. Put in it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n On the large envelope, write your return address (name and address), address the envelope to“Pasta balso\u0161anas komisija, Smil\u0161u iela 4, R\u012bga LV-1050 Latvia<\/strong>“, AND write your “K\u0101rta Nr. v\u0113l\u0113t\u0101ju sarakst\u0101”“Voter Registration Number<\/strong>” on the envelope, i.e. your number on the electoral roll that you wrote down beforehand.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n Check that you have put on enough stamps and send the envelope to Riga to get there by 6 am on June 9. For a regular envelope, a stamp from Canada to Latvia costs $2.92. The safest thing to do is to go to the post office and make sure you have enough stamps and that the letter will reach Riga on time.<\/p>\n\n You have performed your civic duty with honour!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n (If you notice any errors in these instructions, or would like to suggest corrections or additions, please leave a comment or send an email to admin@lnak.org)<\/a><\/p>\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/lnak.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screenshot-151-1024x576.png\" "\\"Screenshot-151\\"")
