H 670 Vermont House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

An act relating to requiring voters to present identification when voting

H.670 requires voters in Vermont to present valid photo identification proving U.S. citizenship when voting in person, early, or by absentee ballot. It specifically mandates that ID include a photo, full name, and current address, with free nondriver identification cards available from the Motor Vehicle Commissioner for eligible voters who need them. First-time voters who registered by mail or online must show ID unless they have already provided it, while all other voters face no ID requirement. Voters without required ID receive a provisional ballot, and religious exemptions are permitted through a signed affidavit.
