Kenyans eligible to vote can continue registering as voters through the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) as preparations for future elections continue. The exercise is aimed at giving more citizens an opportunity to participate in the country’s democratic process.
Eligible Kenyans can register as voters at designated Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) offices across the country.
The continuous voter registration exercise allows citizens who have attained the age of 18 years to enlist as voters ahead of upcoming electoral activities.
Requirements for Registration
To register successfully, applicants are required to present either:
- An original Kenyan national identity card, or
- A valid Kenyan passport.
During the process, IEBC officials capture biometric details including fingerprints and a passport-size photo before issuing an acknowledgement slip to the applicant.
Where To Register
Voter registration services are mainly available at constituency IEBC offices countrywide. Occasionally, the commission also conducts special mass registration drives in selected areas and Huduma Centres to increase accessibility.
Residents are encouraged to visit the nearest IEBC office for assistance and more information regarding registration timelines and polling stations.
Verification of Voter Details
Kenyans who are unsure about their registration status can also verify their details through the official IEBC voter verification platform.
The online service allows voters to confirm:
- Polling station details
- Registration status
- Personal voter information
Users only need their ID or passport number together with their year of birth to access the service.
