Register to vote

You can use this service to:

get on the electoral register so you can vote in elections and referendums in the UK
opt out of the ‘open’ register - the version of the electoral register that’s available for anyone to buy
update your name, address or nationality by registering again with your new details (if you live in the UK)

There’s a different process to register anonymously, for example if you’re concerned about your safety or the safety of someone in your household.

You can check if you’re already registered to vote by contacting your electoral registration office.

This service is also available in Welsh (Cymraeg).
Register online

You normally only need to register once - not for every election. You’ll need to register again if you’ve changed your name, address or nationality.

It usually takes about 5 minutes.
