Voter identification

Step by step

Make your plan before you vote

1. 01

   Review the seven accepted documents

   They include a Texas driver's license, Election Identification Certificate, Texas personal identification card, Texas handgun license, military identification with a photo, citizenship certificate with a photo, and U.S. passport.

2. 02

   Check expiration rules

   For voters ages 18 to 69, identification generally may be expired by up to four years; broader rules apply at age 70 and older if the document would otherwise be acceptable.

3. 03

   Know the alternatives

   A person who does not possess and cannot reasonably obtain acceptable identification may present a supporting document and complete a Reasonable Impediment Declaration.
