New Jersey voter ID

• In-person voter ID requirements

  If you've voted in New Jersey before or provided ID at the time of registration, you don't need to show ID to vote.

  If you're voting in New Jersey for the first time, registered to vote by mail, and didn't provide ID when you registered, be sure to bring a copy of your photo ID, or a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or government document that shows your name and address when you vote.

• Absentee voter ID requirements

  If you've voted in New Jersey before or provided ID at the time of registration, you don't need to provide ID to vote by mail.

  If you're voting in New Jersey for the first time, registered to vote by mail, and didn't provide ID when you registered, be sure to enclose a copy of your photo ID, or a current utility bill, bank statement, government check, paycheck, or government document that shows your name and address when you return your ballot.

  A person who delivers an absentee ballot to the county board in person must provide proof of their identity in the form of a New Jersey driver’s license or another form of identification issued or recognized as official by the federal government, the state of New Jersey, or any of its subdivisions, provided that the identification carries the full address and signature of the person.
