For the 2026 election and referendum on 8 February 2026, identification documents are crucial for voters to prepare in advance.
The documents that voters can use to verify their identity when casting ballots for Members of Parliament and the 2026 constitutional amendment referendum on Sunday, 8 February 2026, are as follows.
1. National ID card, whether the current one or an expired old card, is acceptable as long as the 13-digit identification number is valid and the photo clearly shows the face.
2. Official government-issued identity cards, such as civil servant cards or state enterprise employee cards.
3. Driver's license, whether for a car or motorcycle.
4. Passport.
The key principle is that the document must be issued by a government agency, feature a clear photo of the holder's face, and display a valid 13-digit personal identification number that has not expired.
If presenting a physical card or booklet is inconvenient, voters can show identification through government agency applications as permitted by law, such as ThaiID.
Voters planning to participate on 8 February should prepare their identification documents carefully to avoid losing their right to vote.
