Is it too late to change my address on the register?

    Hi,
    as the question asked is it too late to change my polling address. I have been living in Dublin 10 years and have never bothered to change my voting address. I don't fancy driving two hours down and two hours back to vote so have decided I must change my address.
    Originally I didn't want to change as for local elections I would know a lot more about the candidates at home so wanted to keep my vote there.
    What do I need to do?
    Thanks for any replies!

    Sorry think I have doubled posted as it showed up under an old thread.

    You should be OK. Don't know where your vote is currently based, so I've given the DCC version:
    Change your voting address

    In order to change your registered voting address, you must complete an RFA3 – Change of Address supplement form, ensuring it has been signed by a member of the Garda Siochána, and return it by post to the Franchise Section, Dublin City Council, Block 4, Floor 1, Civic Offices, Wood Quay, Dublin 8.

    Download the RFA3 change of address supplement form(PDF 48Kb)
    Íoslódáil an fhoirm athrú ar seoladh (PDF 52Kb)
    Or, to request a copy, email franchise@dublincity.ie or call (01) 222 2222 (Dublin City Council Customer Services) to request a copy

    Supplement forms must be submitted before the fourteenth day (Sundays, public holidays and Good Friday excluded) before polling day. This is a statutory requirement. Eligible electors whose names are included in the supplement will be entitled to vote at an election or referendum held during the lifetime of the register

    cordially,
