Georgetown: The Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM) will commence the fifth cycle of Continuous Registration on Monday.
This registration exercise will end on November 23. Anyone who will be 14 years or older by December 31, and is a Guyanese citizen by birth, descent, naturalisation, or is a citizen from a Commonwealth country living in Guyana for one year or more, is eligible for registration during this exercise.
During this registration exercise, persons who are eligible for registration are required to visit the registration office that is responsible for their areas of residence to apply for registration.
Persons who were already registered could, if necessary apply for a name change in the case of the change of name(s) by marriage or deed poll, since they were registered, or apply for correction(s), if there is incorrect information on their national ID cards.
Additionally, persons who are already registered could request that their photographs be retaken, if the quality of the photograph on their ID cards is unacceptable, or collect their new ID cards if they have not done so as yet.
GECOM has 28 permanent registration offices located in all of the 10 administrative regions.
The registration offices are as follows: “The office hours during which persons could apply for registration/collect ID cards are: Monday to Friday 09:00h to 13:00h and 14:30h to 18:00h Saturdays from 10:00h to 14:00h.”
