As announced by the National Electoral Council (CNE), in compliance with the schedule it approved, a special registration and voter updating operation will be held by the Electoral Registry, nationally and internationally, from March 18 until April 18.
Likewise, the CNE reported that a total of 315 temporal registration access points were installed in the country, 22 of them in Caracas. However, in the Regional Offices of the Electoral Authority permanent access points for registration and/or update of the electoral registry are available and will operate from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
The main objective of this special operation, given the presidential elections on July 28, is to facilitate individuals to update their data if it is no longer accurate, e.g., due to a change of residence, and for processing the registration of new voters. Potential voters are only required to present their identity card, regardless of whether it has expired or not.
