If you’re eligible to vote, you must enrol the national election roll. But enrolling means you can have a say on the issues that affect you.

If you haven't received your voting papers

If your voting papers have not arrived in the post – as you may have recently changed address or you are on the unpublished electoral roll or you enrolled to vote after 12 August 2022 – please visit your local city or district council office where you can obtain special voting papers.

If you haven't enrolled to vote

You will need to make a special vote. You can enrol up to 4pm 7 October at your local city or district council office.

To make a special vote, please visit your local city or district council office in person - Central Otago District Council, Clutha District Council, Queenstown Lakes District Council or Dunedin City Council.
