Invitation to Register (ITR)
You will be sent an Invitation to Register (ITR) form if you are not currently on the Electoral Register and have been added as a new person on an annual canvass form.
If you have received an ITR, before you can be added to the Electoral Register you will need to register to vote by:
- completing and returning the paper ITR form to us in the post, or
- completing an online registration via GOV.UK
Register online
The quickest and easiest way to register to vote is online via the GOV.UK website.
If you register to vote online, you do not need to complete and return the paper ITR form we sent you. If you recently registered online and then receive an ITR form in the post, it can be ignored.
Before you start
You will need your National Insurance number to register to vote. Your National Insurance number will usually appear on official documents, such as:
- your payslip
- a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP)
- a letter from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC)
If you do not know your National Insurance number, you can use the GOV.UK find your National Insurance number service (opens in a new window).
