Swedish citizens who are no longer registered as resident in Sweden shall be included in the electoral roll for ten years from the date when their population registration ceased. Thereafter they shall, for ten years at a time, only be included in the electoral roll if they give written notice of their address to the Swedish Tax Agency.

If the central election authority for elections to the Riksdag or the European Parliament, no later than on the day prior to the election day, receives a vote from a Swedish citizen who is no longer registered as resident in Sweden and who is not included in the electoral roll, the authority shall add the voter to the electoral roll. The vote shall always be regarded as a notification under the first paragraph, even if it has been received later than on the day prior to the election day.
