Residents need to be on the electoral register to vote in elections and referendums.

You don’t need to register again if you’ve already registered.

You need to register again if you’ve changed address, name or nationality since you last registered or if you haven’t renewed your overseas registration.

You do not need to register separately for every election. If you have received a poll card at your address, then you are currently registered and can vote in the upcoming election stated on the poll card.

The deadline for registering to vote in this General Election is 11:59pm on Tuesday 26th November.

You can register to vote online at >> www.gov.uk/register-to-vote
It usually takes around 5 minutes.

Voting in person - Your council will send you a poll card just before an election telling you where and when to vote.

If you haven’t received a poll card but think you should contact your local Electoral Registration Office

You can still vote if you have lost your card.

Voting by post - If you want to vote by post in the General Election, apply by 5:00pm on Tuesday 26th November to receive your postal voting pack. Your postal vote must then arrive at your local Electoral Registration Office in the UK by 10:00pm on Thursday 12th December.

If you’re too late to post your postal vote ballot paper, you can take it to your local polling station until 10:00pm on December 12th or your local Electoral Registration Office before they close.

You can find more information on how to vote at the link here >> www.gov.uk/voting-in-the-uk
