INEC's voter portal handles voter record reviews, PVC pickup checks and collection centres. A separate INEC tool finds the polling unit for a registration area.
Can I still register to vote for the 2027 elections?
Not at the moment. INEC's voter portal says the Continuous Voter Registration exercise is not currently active. The published 2025โ2026 cycle ran to 30 August 2026. Check the portal for the current status before travelling to a registration centre.
How do I check or collect my PVC?
Use INEC's official portal to review your voter registration, track your PVC application, and find your collection centre. Follow the collection instructions shown for your record.
How do I find my polling unit?
Use INEC's polling unit locator. It asks for your state, local government and registration area, then lists the polling units it holds for that area. INEC says the directions are approximate and advises visiting the location before election day.
Can I transfer, update, or replace my voter registration?
Transfers, information updates and replacement requests run through INEC's voter portal during a registration exercise. With Continuous Voter Registration not currently active, check the portal for the status of each service before travelling.
When are the 2027 elections?
INEC's published timetable gives 16 Jan 2027 for the Presidential & National Assembly elections, and 6 Feb 2027 for the Governorship & State Assembly elections. Polls open 08:30 and close 14:30, local time.
