Fax Your Nebraska Ballot From Overseas
Nebraska takes a faxed ballot only with your county election office's prior approval.
A Nebraska military or overseas voter may return the voted ballot by fax with the prior approval of the county election office, arranged with that office before sending: the Secretary of State's Elections Division said so in its written reply of 2026-10-04 and referred voters to the Federal Voting Assistance Program's Nebraska Voting Assistance Guide, which states that email or fax return of the state absentee ballot requires prior approval from the local election office.

What goes in the fax
Fax the pages together, to the line your election office uses for ballots.
Every page of it, including any page you left blank.
A Nebraska military or overseas voter returns the ballot with the Voter's Oath prescribed in 32-939.02(6)(b), which is delivered with the ballot and must be signed or the ballot is invalid; the statute names no separate secrecy waiver and the Secretary of State publishes no standalone form.
Read the state’s instructionsYour county's ballot fax
The state's directory publishes no ballot fax line for any county. Call the office before you send and ask for the line.
From the Nebraska directory, checked October 2, 2026.
Only if you qualify: your county election office approved fax return before you send.
Call before you send. Fax lines change and some stop answering. A short call confirms the ballot fax number and whether the office has your ballot request. An office’s general fax is not always its ballot line.
Deadlines
A Nebraska voted ballot returned by mail, email, or fax must be received by the county election office by 8 PM Central (7 PM Mountain) on election day, November 3, 2026, the deadline the Federal Voting Assistance Program's Nebraska guide publishes and the Secretary of State's Elections Division confirmed in its written reply of 2026-10-04.
www.fvap.gov/uploads/FVAP/States/nebraska.pdfThe Nebraska Secretary of State states early-voting ballots must arrive at the county election office by the close of polls on election day; its pages set no separate deadline for a military or overseas ballot.

This is what FaxTerra charges to send it. It is not a fee the office charges.
Every FaxTerra account gets 10 free pages a month, and a page to a US fax number counts as one. A ballot packet of up to 10 pages sends free, with no credit card.
Free pages reset on the 1st. If a second ballot in the same month takes you past 10 pages, a FaxTerra Lite pack covers it, with no subscription.
To get your blank ballot by fax, you need a fax number of your own. A One-Time Fax Number is $14.99 once and receives for 90 days, with 50 pages. Starter is $4.99 a month. A ballot sent to you by email needs neither.
Questions
Can I fax my Nebraska ballot from any country?
If you qualify, yes. A US fax number receives a fax the same way wherever it is sent from. Whether Nebraska takes it depends on the condition at the top of this page, so read it before you send.
What if my county's fax line doesn't answer?
Call the number in your county's row before you try again. A line that rings and never connects will not start working on a retry, and the office can tell you whether the number changed.
My county's row has no ballot fax. Where do I send it?
Call the number in your county's row and ask for the fax line the office takes ballots on. The state's directory does not publish one for that office, and an office's general fax is not always its ballot line.
Do I need my own fax number to send my ballot?
No. Sending needs only the fax number your election office uses. A number of your own matters only if you want the blank ballot faxed to you.
Is this an official Nebraska election site?
No. FaxTerra is a fax service. Nebraska's rules come from its election authority and your county, linked under official sources.
