1. Upon delivery of a voter certificate to a voter, an electoral committee member shall mark this fact off in the preliminary electoral roll of a polling district. A voter certificate shall be either delivered to the voter personally or another person who lives together with the voter, or to a neighbour of the voter, who knows the voter and undertakes to deliver the certificate to the voter. The person who receives a voter certificate (certificates) shall sign in the preliminary voter certificate. A voter certificate shall be delivered to a citizen of any other Member State of the European Union only after such person confirms (declares) in writing that in these elections to the European Parliament he will make use of the right to vote when electing the European Parliament only for Lithuania, and that in his home Member State he has not been deprived of the right to vote. When delivering voter certificates, an electoral roll of the voters who are entitled and wish to vote by post at home shall be compiled. The delivery of voter certificates to voters must be finished at least 20 days before the elections. 2. The voter who has not received a voter certificate in due time or who has received a voter certificate with incorrect data, must, without delay, inform the electoral committee of the polling district in the territory whereof he resides, and to produce his passport or other document confirming his identity to the said electoral committee. If the voter is entered on the electoral roll of this polling district, the electoral committee of the polling district must write out a new voter certificate to the voter and issue it to him immediately. A municipal electoral committee may issue a duplicate of a voter certificate to any voter entered on its electoral rolls. If the voter is not entered on the electoral roll of the polling district on which his name should be entered, the electoral committee of that polling district shall forthwith notify about it the municipal electoral committee which must cause to have the voter’s name entered on the electoral roll of this polling district and removed from the electoral roll of another polling district. In this case the voter certificate shall be issued and delivered to the voter following the updating of the electoral rolls. 3. A municipal electoral committee may, in the manner prescribed by the Central Electoral Committee, issue a voter’s certificate to a voter whose name is entered on the electoral roll of a different municipality if said voter is not able to return to his permanent place of residence to collect or obtain in some other manner a voter certificate. The voter must apply for this in writing and produce the document confirming his identity.
