What to bring

One photo ID card issued by a Canadian government (federal, provincial, territorial, or local) with your photo, name, and current address.

2 pieces of ID, both with your name, proving who you are and where you live:

  • At least 1 piece must have your residential address
  • Both pieces must have your name

Valid pieces of ID include documents, bills, ID cards, and ID bracelets from various government and non-government sources. See the "Examples of acceptable ID" section below for examples.

Someone who knows you and is assigned to your polling station who can vouch for you. They must be able to prove their identity and address.

A person can vouch for only one other person, except in long-term care facilities.

Be on the safe side: Bring extra ID if you can.
