There are many instances when voters are discouraged to proceed and fill the Voter Registration Form No-6 because of a mere fact that it looks complicated and requires a lot of information to entered. Although this is not the case, although this Voter Registration Form which looks like a complicated piece of questionnaire at the first instance, is actually a simple one, that requires some basic personal information as an input along with a few prescribed identity proof documents required for voter verification.
What is Voter Registration Form 6 about?
Voter Registration Form No-6 or Form 6 is actually an offline/online form that is filled by the first time voter to include his/her name in the voters’ list and hence make that person a certified registered Voter. As we all know that inclusion of name in the electoral roll is the first step towards the essential process of voting hence the complementary importance of this voter registration form is also easy to comprehend.
[Here is a first hand account of a first time voter, about his experience with Electronic Voting Machine]Therefore in order to avoid any future obstacle while casting a vote during the elections, it is necessary that Voter Registration Form No. 6 is very carefully filled without errors.
Steps for filing Form No. 6 for the inclusion of your name in the Voters’ List
First of all, the voter is required to obtain the physical form or the online Form No. 6 or From 6 from the ERO office and website respectively. The Voter Registration Form No. 6 is also available for downloading, from the Election Commission of India Website. The download link for this essential Voter ID Application form is:- Download FORM 6

Then move ahead and fill personal information like,
- First and Last Name

Next step is to fill current and permanent address details like your house number, street, town, village, post office, pin code, state, and district, and lastly the Epic number.
If required, fill the optional particulars and upload documents like a photograph, age proof, and address proof.
Then, submit the form by filling in the declaration.
By signing this declaration, you hence declare and signify that:-
- You are a citizen of India.
- The address you have provided is true and you are an ordinary resident at the same.

If you think you have your name in the electoral roll of another constituency, you must immediately get it deleted by filing the Voter Registration Form No. 7 for deletion of a name from a Voters’ List, this is also used for raising an objection for inclusion of a name in the electoral roll that is not supposed to be included. Hence you must know that before applying for Voter Registration in one constituency, you must make sure that you are not a registered voter in any other constituency.

Hi Suresh,
Your ID proof and photographs will work. However you will need residential proof that you stay in Haryana – Rent receipts, any utility bill like telephone, gas etc in your name will do.
Hitesh Salavi says
Its very briefly explained that i really good perfact and accurate information is provided but my question is after all this procedure,what how we will get the voter card?
pbs.twimg.com/media/CM5c0ieUcAAVv4L.jpg
After sign in, it shows that my application for voter card is approved but now what I’ve to do is nowhere mentioned.
Please do needful.
Voter ID Card Editorial Board says
Hi Hitesh,
There will be a voter verification when someone from your area’s electoral office will come to verify the details you may have submitted in your application. After that it usually takes a month or so for the voter ID card to arrive. Now since this process doesn’t involve anything to be done by the applicant, that is why nothing is mentioned anywhere. After you submit the application, the election officials will take care of proceedings.
