Voter registration and record corrections

Before you start

Your electoral-roll entry and your voter card are related but serve different purposes. Start by checking the current official guidance for registration and electoral-roll search. A card alone should not replace checking your entry and polling information before an election.

Your preparation checklist

1. Decide whether you need first registration, a correction or an address-related change.
2. Read the eligibility and evidence requirements for the relevant form.
3. Prepare clear supporting documents with consistent names and address details.
4. Check your existing entry to avoid submitting a duplicate request unnecessarily.

Complete the next steps

Choose the appropriate request on Voter Services, review the fields and submit through the official process. Keep the application reference for status checks. Where verification is required, follow instructions from the election authorities and check the resulting roll entry after processing.

If something goes wrong

If an entry or request cannot be found, recheck the search details and selected location. Use the portal’s official assistance route for unresolved discrepancies. This directory cannot add your name to the roll or guarantee completion before an election; consult election authorities for applicable schedules.
