The electoral register

Viewing the electoral register

You can view the full Electoral Register at our main offices. You can’t view it online.

You need to contact us to arrange to visit our office and view the register. We can only arrange viewings for times when we are open.


The Electoral Commission has set restrictions on what you can and can’t do when viewing the register.

You can:

  • view the current live register
  • make handwritten notes

You can’t:

  • view the register unsupervised
  • take pictures of or photocopy the register
  • look up anyone by name
  • use the information for marketing purposes
  • view historical registers

There are over 60,000 addresses on the register. We organise the register by polling district, and then alphabetically by street name.

The register only has names and elector numbers. It has no other details, such as contact numbers or forwarding addresses.
