Voter Information Cards

Media Release: Tuesday, August 10, 2021

Elections Nova Scotia – All registered voters should have received a personalized voter information card (VIC) in the mail.

VICs include information on the closest voting locations. Voters should remember to bring their VIC and ID when they vote.

Eligible voters can vote without a VIC if they have ID with their name and civic address or if they sign a declaration attesting to their eligibility. If a voter does not have ID with their current address or name they can take an oath when the vote to attest to their eligibility.

If a voter receives a VIC with errors in it, they should bring it with them when they vote and have their information updated on the list of electors.

To be eligible to vote for the provincial election voters must be 18 years of age or older on August 17th, a Canadian citizen, have lived in Nova Scotia since January 17, 2021.

Elections Nova Scotia is a non-partisan and independent agency responsible for conducting provincial elections. For more information, please visit electionsnovascotia.ca, or follow us on Facebook and Twitter @electionsns.
