You may be asked to show ID if you are a first-time voter, voting for the first time in Pennsylvania, your voter registration is inactive, or your ballot is challenged.

You will also need to show ID if you are voting for the first time in a federal election (Presidential or Congressional), or if you are a first-time voter who registered by mail and did not provide identification with your registration.

Valid forms of ID include:

– Pennsylvania driver’s license or PennDOT ID card
– ID issued by any Commonwealth agency
– ID issued by the U.S. Government
– U.S. passport
– U.S. Armed Forces ID
– Student ID
– Employee ID

If you do not have a photo ID, you can use a non-photo identification that includes your name and address:
– Confirmation issued by the County Voter Registration Office
– Non-photo ID issued by the Commonwealth
– Non-photo ID issued by the U.S. Government
– Firearm permit
– Current utility bill
– Current bank statement
– Current paycheck
– Government check

Voters without ID may be able to vote provisionally.
