Local elections – Make sure your voting details are correct
If you’re registered to vote, you should have received a voter confirmation pack in the mail. You don’t have to do anything if the details inside are correct. If the details are wrong, you need to update your details online at vote.nz or by returning the form included in the pack.
If you’re registered to vote and you didn’t receive your pack, you will need to update your details with the electoral commission by going to the website above, call them on 0800 36 76 56 or freetext to 3676.
If you would like to change from the general roll to the Māori roll before the local elections, you need to change your details before midnight, 10 July 2025.
Everyone who is 18 years or older should be enrolled to vote – it means that you get to have a say in who will represent you at the Council table. You can even register to enroll if you will turn 18 during the voting period, which means that you will be able to cast a special vote once you have enrolled.
Don’t delay, make sure you have your chance to cast your vote.
