An external fluid voiding apparatus that may be configured for either female or male use includes a container, a conduit and a vacuum device, which define a urine drainage passage. The vacuum device may be deformed externally so as to create a vacuum effect inside the apparatus when the apparatus is fitted around the females vulval region or the males penis. The vacuum effect facilitates drawing urine from a reservoir of the container to the vacuum device through the conduit. The urine may be collected and stored in the vacuum device. A user may drain the urine collected inside the vacuum device through a drainage port. Alternatively, a user may disconnect a used vacuum device and replace it with a clean one.
