New Photo Identification Requirements for Texas Voters

A court order issued on August 10, 2016, relating to photo identification requirements for Texas voters has changed the rules. With this court order, Texas voters have additional options when presenting ID at the polls for the November 8, 2016 election.

As provided by court order, if a voter is not able to obtain one of the seven forms of approved photo ID, the voter may vote by (1) signing a declaration at the polls explaining why the voter is unable to obtain one of the seven forms of approved photo ID, AND (2) providing one of various forms of supporting documentation.

Seven approved Forms of Photo ID

With the exception of the U.S. citizenship certificate, the approved photo ID must be current or have expired no more than four years before being presented for voter qualification at the polling place.
 

Be sure to have one of these acceptable forms of photo ID on election day.

    • Texas driver license issued by the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS)
    • Texas Election Identification Certificate issued by DPS
    • Texas personal identification card issued by DPS
    • Texas license to carry a handgun issued by DPS
    • United States military identification card containing the person's photograph
    • United States citizenship certificate containing the person's photograph
    • United States passport

Supporting documentation can be:

    • Valid Voter Registration Certificate
    • Certified Birth Certificate (must be an original)
    • Copy of or original current utility bill
    • Copy of or original bank statement
    • Copy of or original government check
    • Copy of or original paycheck
    • Copy of or original government document with your name and an address (original required if it contains a photograph)

With the exception of the U.S. citizenship certificate, the identification must be current or have expired no more than 60 days before being presented for voter qualification at the polling place.

Election Identification Certificates are available from DPS driver license offices during regular business hours.
