1. A mobile ballot box list shall be drawn up based on unified and special lists of voters (except for the voters staying abroad on polling day) if:

a) a voter is unable to visit the polling station due to health problems;

b) a voter is in prison;

c) a voter is in hospital or in any other inpatient facility for treatment where no electoral precinct will be opened;

electoral precinct will be opened;

e) a voter is within the territory of the electoral district but his/her location is difficult to access.

2. If a voter is unable to visit polling station on polling day, he/she shall apply to the PEC for mobile voting at least two days before the polling day. On
the polling day, a DEC shall transfer information of any voter undergoing treatment at an inpatient facility to the respective PEC not later than two days
before the polling day. The voter shall be entered into the mobile ballot box list after:

time of the telephone call and the telephone number;

b) the transfer of a voter into the mobile ballot box list is specified in the unified or special lists of voters that shall be endorsed by signatures of the PEC
chairperson and secretary.

3. Information of voters to be entered into the mobile ballot box list shall immediately be posted in a visible place within the electoral precinct. PEC
members, representatives of electoral subjects, and observers shall have the right to verify whether the request for mobile voting is well-substantiated
and shall raise a question before the PEC whether it is advisable to enter those individuals into the mobile ballot box list any time before Election Day.
The PEC shall decide the above issue.
