Please note that these new requirements will not affect electors who vote by post. *Identification is required at all unscheduled polls (by elections) that take place. Electors who do not hold any of the accredited forms of photo ID are able to apply (if required) for a free Voter Authority Certificate.

Using information received from the public, registration officers keep two registers: the electoral register and the open register.
The electoral register lists the names and addresses of everyone registered to vote in public elections. The register is used for electoral purposes, such as making sure only eligible people can vote. It is also used for other limited purposes specified in law, such as detecting crime (e.g. fraud), calling people for jury service and checking credit applications.
The open register is an extract of the electoral register but is not used for elections. It can be bought by any person, company or organisation. For example, it is used by businesses and charities to confirm name and address details. Your name and address will be included in the open register unless you ask for them to be removed. Removing your details from the open register does not affect your right to vote. If you wish to be removed from the open register, please click here or contact the Elections office.
During the annual canvass every household in Northumberland will receive a letter or canvass form listing everyone who is currently registered to vote at the property, this takes place every year between July and December. We now send out two different types of correspondence, rather than one standard form. Unlike previous years we no longer require a response from every household, only the household who have received a canvass form are required to respond. You may have received an email from northumberland.county.council.electoral.services@notifications.service.gov.uk titled 'Is the electoral registration information correct for your address?' It will include the Northumberland County Council logo and a two-part security code. When you receive this email, please respond, even if all details are correct so that we can ensure our information is up to date. Click here for further information on this years Canvass As part of Northumberland County Council`s Annual Canvass, we are this year inline with updated legislation using additional methods of communication, including emailing residents where we hold an email address. If in any doubt regarding the legitimacy of these emails, please contact the Elections office on 01670 624811 or elections@northumberland.gov.uk
