Washington ID Needed for Registration

ID is necessary to register. If you register by mail and do not have a Washington state driver's license, Washington state ID card, or a Social Security number, you will be required to provide one of the following items when you cast your ballot:

• Valid photo ID
• Valid tribal ID of a federally recognized Indian tribe in Washington state
• Copy of a current utility bill
• Current bank statement
• Copy of a current government check
• Copy of a current paycheck
• A government document that shows both your name and address

If you do not provide one of the above items either before or at the time of voting, your ballot will be treated as a provisional ballot.
