REVISION & TIMELINE

Preparation of Registers of Electors

To reflect changes in the electorate, the Registration Office will update and prepare new Registers of Electors. In preparing the Registers of Electors, the Registration Officer shall enter the names of all persons who are qualified to be electors in the appropriate registers. After the Registers of Electors are prepared, the Registration Officer shall give notice that the registers are open for inspection.

Inspection of Registers of Electors

The Registers of Electors are available for public inspection for a period of 2 weeks.

During this period, Singapore citizens may check their particulars in the registers:

• Online via Singpass app;

• Online via the Elections Department Voter Services;

• In person (with their NRIC/passport) at community centres/clubs and ServiceSG centres, Singapore overseas missions serving as overseas registration centres, or

• At Elections Department office (with NRIC/passport) by making an e-appointment.

A person (also known as claimant) may put up a claim to:

• Have his name included in one of the Registers of Electors (if he thinks he is a qualified elector but his name is not found in any of the registers);

• Update his particulars in the registers if these are reflected differently from his NRIC; or

• Move his name from the register of an electoral division to another (if he has changed his address before the cut-off date).

A person (also known as objector) may also raise an objection to:

• Remove his own name from the Registers of Electors; or

• Remove a name in the Register of Electors for his own electoral division (e.g. for a person who is no longer living at the address).

Inspection of Claimant List

After all claims and objections are processed at the end of the 2-week inspection period, qualified electors of an electoral division may inspect the list of claims by persons from the electoral division that the Claimant List relates to. This can be done over a 6-day period at community centres/clubs and ServiceSG centres, Singapore overseas missions serving as overseas registration centres and the Elections Department office.

Certification of Revised Registers of Electors

At the end of the exercise, the Registration Officer shall certify the registers.
