Enrollment in the upcoming New Zealand general elections and referendum are under way with the elections set for Nov. 26.

Eligible New Zealanders overseas can vote in the lead-up to Election Day but must be enrolled first.

To be eligible to vote, the person voting must be a New Zealand citizen and have visited New Zealand within the last three years, or a permanent resident of New Zealand and have visited New Zealand in the last 12 months.

Once enrolled, voters can cast their ballot from Nov. 9.
