The voter slip download 2025 process allows registered voters to access their Voter Information Slip (VIS). It contains details such as polling booth location, part number, and polling date. The Voter Information Slip (VIS) helps voters locate their polling booth but is not a valid identity document for voting.

Key Highlights

  • As per ECI guidelines, voters must carry EPIC/e-EPIC or an approved photo ID to vote.
  • Voters can download voter slip online via the Voters’ Services Portal or the Voter Helpline App using their EPIC number, mobile number or details search.

What is a Voter Slip?

A voter slip or 'Voter Information Slip (VIS)' is a document issued by the Election Commission of India (ECI) which helps voters locate their polling booth and verify their electoral roll details. 

It contains details of a voter, such as a name, age, gender, assembly constituency, polling station location, and the date and time of the poll. Though the VIS contains personal and polling information, it cannot be used as a standalone identification document for voting.

Information on Voter Slip

The voter slip will contain the following information:

  • Name
  • Age
  • Relative's name
  • Gender
  • EPIC number/Voter number
  • Parliamentary constituency number
  • Polling station address
  • Polling station
  • Part number
  • Part Serial Number
  • Polling date

Voter Slip Format

There is a specific format that ECI follows in regard to physical voter slips. Read the pointers below to know all about it:

  • For the physical copy, VIS should be printed on good quality paper of a size ‘Half of A4’ or 8 inches by 6 inches.
  • The front side of a voter slip contains voter details, such as the location of your polling station and the date and time of the poll.
  • The back side of a voter slip contains a snapshot of a map of your polling station’s location and a few dos and don’ts to guide the voter.
  • The VIS also contains a QR code to quickly search/match elector details using the ‘Booth App’ or ‘Voter Helpline App’.

A sample of a physical voter slip issued by the ECI is shown below.
