To register to vote in England, you must be aged 16 or over to register.
You can register to vote if you’re a British citizen or an Irish citizen.
You can also register if you have permission to enter or stay in the UK, Channel Islands or Isle of Man - or you do not need permission - and you are a:
- Commonwealth citizen
- Citizen of Denmark, Luxembourg, Poland, Portugal or Spain
- Citizen of another EU country, if you have had permission to enter or stay - or not needed permission - since 31 December 2020, and this has continued without a break
Please note because you pay Council Tax it does not mean you are automatically registered to vote.
