FAQ: National Mail Voter Registration Form

What is the National Form?
The National Mail Voter Registration Form consists of four parts:

• The Application itself
• The General Applications
• The Application Instructions
• The State Instructions

Can I register to vote in any State or the District of Columbia using the National Form?
Yes, with the following exceptions: North Dakota does not have voter registration; Wyoming, by State law, cannot accept the National Form; and New Hampshire town and city clerks will accept the National Form only as a request for their own mail-in absentee voter registration form.

Can the Form be photocopied? 
Yes. States that accept the national form will accept copies of the application printed from the computer image on regular paper stock, signed by the applicant, and mailed in a envelope with first class postage.
