When IDs Are Required to Vote
A reminder that a valid ID is only required for voters who are voting for the first time or who are voting for the first time at a new polling place. If this is not your first time voting and you are asked to show an ID, you DO NOT need to show it.
Below is a list of valid forms of IDs to cast your vote.
Acceptable forms of PHOTO ID
• Pennsylvania driver’s license or PennDOT ID card
• ID issued by any Commonwealth agency
• ID issued by the U.S. Government
• U.S. passport
• U.S. Armed Forces ID
• Student ID
• Employee ID
Acceptable forms of non-photo ID
• Non-photo ID issued by the Commonwealth (such as your voter registration card)
• Non-photo ID issued by the U.S. Government
• Firearm permit
• Current utility bill
• Current bank statement
• Current paycheck
• Government check
