ID Requirements

To vote in person or apply for an absentee ballot, you will need to show ID. There are six acceptable forms of photo ID:

• Georgia Driver's License, even if expired
• Valid ID issued by any state or the Federal Government
• Valid employee ID issued by the Federal Government, the State of Georgia, or a county, city, or other government entity of Georgia
• Valid US passport
• Valid US military ID
• Valid tribal ID

If you are applying for an absentee ballot or you are a first-time registrant by mail who has not already provided a photo ID, there are five more forms of ID you can use:

• Current utility bill
• Bank statement
• Government check
• Paycheck
• Other government document

If you do not have an acceptable photo ID, you can get a Voter ID, free of charge, from our office at 4380 Memorial Drive.

You must provide:

• A photo identity document or approved non-photo identity document that includes your full legal name and date of birth
• Documentation showing your date of birth
• Evidence that you are a registered voter
• Documentation showing your name and residential address
