Georgia law requires registered voters to show photo identification in order to vote in person. When you vote in person, you must show one of the following photo IDs:
• A Georgia driver’s license, even if expired
• Any valid state or federal government issued photo ID, including one issued by the Department of Driver Services or your Voter Registrar
• Valid U.S. passport
• Valid employee photo ID from any branch, department, agency, or entity of the U.S. Government, this state, or any county, municipality, board, authority or other entity of this state
• Valid U.S. military photo ID
• Valid tribal photo ID
If you DO NOT have one of these forms of ID, you can receive a FREE Georgia Voter ID card. Just contact your county registrar’s office or a Department of Driver Services office. For more information, call 1-877-725-9797, or go to www.GaPhotoID.com.
If you do not have a photo ID listed above, you can still vote by provisional ballot. You have two days after the election to bring the required photo ID to your county registrar’s office in order for your provisional ballot to be counted. If you have to vote a provisional ballot because you don’t have one of the forms of Photo ID listed above, you can go to your county voter registration office, get a FREE photo ID and present it within two days after the election and your provisional ballot will be counted.
If you simply forget your Photo ID, and time permits, you can retrieve it, return to the polling place, and vote.
