The method of calculating citizen age is implemented as follows:

In case there is no Birth Certificate, it is based on the information recorded in the Citizen Identification Card and Passport to calculate the age for exercising the right to vote and run for election;
Each full age is calculated from the date and month of birth of the previous year to the date and month of birth of the following year;
In case the date of birth cannot be determined, the 1st day of the month of birth is used as the basis for determining the age to exercise the right to vote and run for election.
