Renewing your postal vote
The Elections Act 2022 introduced changes to postal voting arrangements, and electors can now hold a postal vote for a maximum period of 3 years.
All electors who applied for a postal vote before 31 January 2024 will be asked to reapply before their current postal vote expires on 31 January 2026. Those electors who have provided us with an email address have already been contacted by email, and all affected electors will now be sent a form in the post.
You can reapply online. As part of your online application, you will be required to upload a photo of your handwritten signature in black ink on plain white paper.
If you receive a form to reapply and do not reapply before 31 January 2026, your postal vote will be automatically cancelled.
