Accreditation of NGO observers

Local and international organizations, as well as various international missions who are interested to observe the elections, can apply for accreditation of observers. Their observers can observe the whole electoral process or just the election day, depending for which one they apply.

Remark: Individuals cannot observe elections. To observe the elections, you must join the teams of political party observers or NGOs. You can do this by contacting directly the political entity or NGO within the scope of which you will observe the election.

Application process for accreditation of local NGO observers

Local non-governmental organizations dealing with elections and the protection of human rights can observe elections. To apply for accreditation of observers, local NGOs should follow the steps below:

In the template list of the observers you will write the data of all persons who will observe elections on behalf of your NGO. The list of observers must be completed electronically and then printed and signed by an authorized person of the NGO. In addition to the signed list, NGOs should bring the same list in Excel format in a CD.

The application for accreditation of observers should be accompanied by a copy of the NGO registration certificate as well as a copy of the statute that must be stamped.

The documents listed in the steps above must be submitted to the Office for Political Party Registration and Certification at CEC.
