UK Parliamentary General Election 4 July - Don't forget photo ID
If you are voting in a polling station at the UK Parliamentary General Election on Thursday 4 July, you 'll need to show an eligible form of photo ID.
You may already have a form of photo ID that is acceptable. You can use any of the following:
· Passport issued by the UK, any of the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, a British Overseas Territory, an EEA state or a Commonwealth country
· Driving licence issued by the UK, any of the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, or an EEA state (this includes a provisional driving licence)
· Blue badge
· Certain concessionary travel cards
· Identity card with PASS mark (Proof of Age Standards Scheme)
· Biometric Immigration document
· Defence identity card
· Certain national identity cards
· National identity card issued by an EEA state
· Voter Authority Certificate
You can use an out-of-date photo ID as long as the photo still looks like you.
If you are voting by proxy for someone in their polling station on 4 July, remember you'll also need to take an accepted form of photo ID with you.
