Important Information
Submitting an application does not automatically mean your name is added to the electoral roll â verification, and in some cases field-level verification, may be required.
If you already have a Voter ID and need correction, address change, replacement or constituency shift, use the relevant service instead of applying as a new voter.
Never share your OTP or password with anyone claiming to be an election official, and avoid unofficial websites or paid 'instant Voter ID' offers.
Do not submit multiple new-voter applications â use the application-status facility to track an existing application instead.
