Register to vote

To register to vote or to update your details

1. Visit: Register to vote .
2. You will be asked to enter your name, address, date of birth and other details. You will need your National Insurance number. This can be found on your national insurance card, on official paperwork like payslips or letters about pensions, benefits and tax credits.
3. If your application is approved, we will let you know that you have been registered.

Please note: If you do not have a National Insurance number, you can still apply online. We will ask you for proof of your identity and address.

You can also complete an application form or phone us to register: Contact Electoral Services.

All applications are checked against Government records before you are added to the Electoral register.
