Paragraph 54
 

If out-of-country voting is allowed, limited organisational capacities for voting outside the country, combined with excessive administrative requirements for voter registration, may hamper citizens abroad from casting their vote. In Ukraine, for instance, only around 2% of citizens living abroad participated in the 2019 presidential elections. Some CoE member states still have to develop the organisational capacity needed for general out-of-country voting.
