Section 44(10) of the Elections Ordinance states:
“(c) the voter must produce his passport, drivers licence or such other official
form of picture identification as will enable the presiding officer to confirm the
voter’s identity”
This will be taken to include one of the following: Turks and Caicos Islander
Status Card, passport, NIB card, NHIP card or Driver’s Licence. US and
Bahamian Driver’s Licence will be accepted also.
If the presented form of identity is unclear or believed to be unsatisfactory
to establish the voter’s identity, the Presiding Officer is at liberty to request a
second piece of picture identification by way of corroboration.
A birth certificate cannot be presented as a form of identification as it does not
meet the requirement of being “picture identification”.
