Fax Your North Dakota Ballot From Overseas
North Dakota takes a faxed ballot only if you chose to receive your ballot by fax.
North Dakota lets a military or overseas (UOCAVA) voter who chose to receive the ballot by fax mark it and fax it back to the county auditor. Source

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.
Your 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 North Dakota directory, checked September 30, 2026.
Only if you qualify: you chose to receive your ballot by fax.
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 North Dakota military or overseas ballot must be mailed or submitted electronically by the close of polls on Election Day; the Secretary of State states no separate deadline for a faxed ballot.
www.sos.nd.gov/elections/voter/voting-north-dakota/how-do-i-vote/military-and-overseas-us-citizensA North Dakota military or overseas voter chooses on the UOCAVA ballot application to receive the ballot electronically (a secure link from the county auditor), by fax, or by mail, and ballots go out 46 days before the election.

Every 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 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 North Dakota ballot from any country?
If you qualify, yes. A US fax number receives a fax the same way wherever it is sent from. Whether North Dakota 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 North Dakota election site?
No. FaxTerra is a fax service. North Dakota's rules come from its election authority and your county, linked under official sources.
