Yes, in Australia, voting is compulsory for citizens aged 18 and over. If an eligible voter fails to vote without a valid and accepted reason, they may face a fine. The amount of the fine can vary by state but is generally around $20 to $50. However, exemptions and valid reasons for not voting do exist, which can prevent penalties.
