PHOTO ID REQUIRED

A new Missouri law requires specific forms of photo ID to vote.

Permissible forms of ID:

  • Nonexpired Missouri driver’s license or non-driver’s license
  • Nonexpired U.S. passport
  • Nonexpired U.S military ID, including veteran’s card
  • Another photo ID issued by Missouri or the federal government that’s not expired or has expired after Nov. 2, 2020

No longer permissible forms of ID:

  • Student IDs, out-of-state driver’s licenses, pay stubs, utility bills, and postcards from the St. Louis Board of Election Commissioners

If you do not have an acceptable ID, you can vote a provisional ballot on Election Day and it will be counted if  the signature on your provisional ballot matches the signature on file with the Board of Election Commissioners.
