For privacy reasons, your electoral enrolment will only be confirmed if the details you enter are an exact match to your details on the electoral roll.

If you cannot confirm your electoral enrolment online it doesn’t mean you are not on the electoral roll. Please contact the AEC and we can check your enrolment details.

FAQs :
Why have I received an email or SMS from the AEC?
The AEC has sent email and SMS messages to encourage people to enrol or update their enrolment details. All Australian citizens aged 18 years or over are required by law to enrol and keep their enrolment details up to date.

If you have received an email or sms message it is because the AEC has information that indicates you may either need to enrol or update your enrolment details. The AEC also encourages citizens that are 16 and 17 to enrol so that they are able to vote when they turn 18.

The AEC has sent these messages via email or SMS where email addresses and/or mobile phone number has been provided to either the AEC as part of an enrolment application, or to another government agency.

More information is available to help you either enrol for the first time, update your address, change your name, or if you are living or working overseas.

What is ‘close of rolls’?
The ‘close of rolls’ is the date the electoral roll closes for the federal election. When the writs are issued for the federal election, a date is set for the close of rolls. After this date, you cannot enrol or update your details on the electoral roll for the federal election.

The close of rolls date is 8pm local Australian time on the seventh calendar day after the writs are issued for the federal election. You must be enrolled at your current address so you can vote for the candidates in your electorate (also known as electoral division) in the federal election.
