Do I need to register separately to vote in the European elections?

I’m a registered voter and can vote in local/ general. Can I automatically vote in the eu ones? Or do I need to register somewhere else?

Sorry for the stupid question... Blush

No need to register again Smile

Not a stupid question at all, I was wondering that as well. The Gov website states you only need to register once for all elections, but then also says dont forget to register for the EU elections, Confused

If you have your poll card for the local elections (assuming you have them in your area this time around) you should get your poll card for the EU elections too (assuming you are not an EU citizen in which case I think you need to register again separately). DH and I received our EU poll cards yesterday.

It was the Gov website that confused me.

I’m sure I’ve votes in them before (I don't normally miss voting). I just can’t remember doing it Confused

Thank you

If you're already a registered voter you'll receive your voting card soon. Mine arrived today.

You do not need a polling card to vote.

The Registration "Voter Number" on your card for the locla elections is the same for the Euro-elections.
