Vote in person

Ensure you have the correct voter ID

Identification (ID) requirement

All registered voters must remember the new voter ID requirement, which will apply for the first time in England at the local elections. If you have suitable ID, you must remember to bring it with you to the polling station, and if you don’t you can apply for ID for free, or by contacting our Electoral Services Team.

Find out more on the changes to elections and voting page.

Poll cards

Please note your poll card is not a valid form of ID.

We will send a poll card to all registered voters about 3 to 4 weeks before an election.

The poll card gives details of when and where to vote. You must go to your allocated the polling station. You do not need your poll card to vote. You just need to give your name and address and valid form of ID to the staff on duty. 

You can also vote by post or have someone vote on your behalf by proxy.
