Notification of candidature. A candidate list must include at least as many names of candidates as are to be elected each time, but must never exceed double that number. Care shall be taken to ensure that for all candidatures the candidate’s full name, domicile address, personal identification number (kennitala) and position or job title are stated clearly, so as to prevent confusion about who is standing for election. The names of candidates shall be written on the candidate list with at least one given name and surname as they appear in the national registry. A candidate who requests that his or her name be written differently is so entitled, provided that the names in question are registered in the national registry. However, a candidate may write his or her given name(s) differently than registered in the national registry if known under that application of his or her given name(s). A candidate to the Althingi may be domiciled in a different constituency from the one in which that candidate is standing for election.
