Voters are asked to provide photo ID when voting in North Carolina this year, and it’s one of the three constitutional amendments appearing on the ballot.
Most voters use a North Carolina driver’s license. And that can still be used if it expired on July 1, 2025, or later, as long as it’s Class C.
According to the State Board of Elections, military and veteran IDs, as well as tribal enrollment cards, are accepted regardless of expiration date.
Individuals can also present a state ID from the NCDMV or a US passport.
Identification from other states may be accepted if the voter registered within 90 days of the election.
Some school IDs are approved for students and employees, including Appalachian State University, Randolph Community College, Winston-Salem State University and more.
Voters can get a free photo ID from the county board of elections where they are registered until the end of this month.
Individuals without valid identification due to lack of transportation, disability and other challenges can still vote a provisional ballot in person after submitting an ID Exception Form.
