What you will need to vote:

Polling stations will be open from 7am to 10pm on July 4.

Once you are inside the polling station, the staff will check you are on the electoral register, ask for your photo ID and hand you a ballot paper.

You should take this to a voting booth, read the instructions on it and mark the ballot paper with your vote.

You can then place it in the ballot box and leave the venue.

This election is the first time in the UK that everyone wanting to vote in person will have to show a correct form of photo ID before casting a ballot – this includes a passport, driving licence and blue badge.

It does not matter if your photo ID is out of date, as long as it still looks like you and has the name under which you registered to vote.

Other forms of permitted ID include an Older Person’s or Disabled Person’s Bus Pass, and an identity card bearing the Proof of Age Standards Scheme hologram (a Pass card).

A polling card, which tells you when you can vote and at which polling station, is not required to cast your vote. Simply tell the staff there your name and address when you arrive.
