Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a Voter ID correction take?
Typically around 30 days, though simple corrections like a spelling fix can sometimes be processed faster.
I moved to a different city — is this the right service?
Only if you're staying within the same assembly constituency. Moving to a new constituency requires a fresh Voter ID New registration instead, since your entry needs to move to a different electoral roll.
What proof do I need for a name correction?
A document showing the correct spelling of your name — Aadhaar, PAN, or a birth certificate all work.
