Dear members,
This is a reminder to register to vote in the upcoming AFRINIC elections if you have not yet done so. As a quick recap, here is what you need to do to register to vote online:
- A director, or similar authority at your organisation, will need
to take a letter designating an e-voting representative to a Notary to be certified. Here is a template to use for that letter:
*Designation of an e-voting representative for [company name]*
To Whom It May Concern,
This letter serves to designate the following person as *[company name]*’s e-voting representative for the upcoming AFRINIC Board elections:
- Full name: *[representative’s full n*ame]
- Representative’s ID number:
- Email address: *[representative’s email address]*
- Contact number(s): *[representative’s phone number(s) in intl.
format, +27…]*
I hereby attest that I hold the authority on behalf of *[company name]* to designate the above e-voting representative. I confirm that the above email address is the correct address to send *[company name]*’s secure e-voting link to.
This letter is accompanied by an up-to-date copy of the e-voting representative’s ID document and has been signed in the presence of a Notary, who has certified it.
Yours sincerely,
*[to be signed in the presence of the Notary]*
*[name of the authorising person]*
*[position of the authorising person]*
*[company name]*
- Take the letter, as well as a copy of the e-voting
representative’s ID document to a Notary to be certified. Bear in mind that there will likely be a modest cost associated with this step. *Note: **AFRINIC has confirmed* https://afrinic.net/ast/2025/Final_FAQ.pdf * that the letter does not to be apostilled.*
- Scan the letter together with the notarial certificate and the
ID copy, and send the scanned documents to elections2025@afrinic.net before midnight on 2nd June 2025.
