Postal applications for the electoral identity card
To obtain an application form for the electoral identity card you can either telephone us on 0800 4320 712 or email info@eoni.org.uk with your name and address and we will post one out to you.
All postal applications for an Electoral Identity Card must be accompanied by appropriate photographic identity. The identity document must be original - copies will not be accepted. Examples of acceptable documents are:

This list is not definitive and other forms of photographic identity may be accepted. The Electoral Office will not accept responsibility if documents are lost in the post and you may wish to consider sending them by special or recorded delivery at your own expense.
Applications for the electoral identity card in person
Applications may be made in person at any Area Electoral Office where your photograph will be taken for the card (you will not need to provide identity if you apply in this way as you will be asked to complete an application form containing personal information).
