The Fijian Elections Office (FEO) is offering voter services typically provided at the voter services center at their booth during the Fiji National University (FNU) Open Day, which begins today at the Nasinu Campus Multi-Purpose Court in Valelevu.
“For these two days, members of the public who have lost their Voter Identification (ID) card or who wish to have a new Voter ID card done, can come and see the team and have the changes made. We are bringing our services to the people on the two days and I encourage the public to take advantage of this opportunity,” FEO Director Operations Anaseini Senimoli said.
Members of the public intending to get their new Voter ID card done will be required to provide the following:
- Birth Certificate (Original or Certified True Copy) and any of the following current photo ID cards.
- · Fiji Passport (valid);
- · Fiji National Provident Fund;
- · Driver’s License;
- · Social Welfare ID;
- · T.I.N Card (Joint FIRCA/FNPF); and
- · Student ID from any Tertiary Institution registered with the Fiji Higher Education Commission.
For a replacement Voter ID card, any current photo ID card will suffice. They could be any of the following;
- · Fiji Passport (valid);
- · Fiji National Provident Fund;
- · Driver’s License;
- · Social Welfare ID;
- · T.I.N Card (Joint FIRCA/FNPF); and
- · Student ID from any Tertiary Institution registered with Fiji Higher Education
- Commission.
“The team will be on standby to answer any queries members of the public might have. However, I urge our youths, especially those who are eligible to vote but are still without Voter ID cards, to visit our booth and have their cards done. They don’t need to worry about paying anything because it’s Free of Charge. They will only need to bring the required documents and of course, a parent or guardian (who is also a registered voter) to accompany them. The FEO booth will open from 8 am to 4 pm on Friday and from 9 am to 3 pm on Saturday,” Senimoli said.
