Enrol to vote 

Before you can vote, you need to be enrolled. If you are Māori, you choose between the Māori roll and the general roll when you first enrol to vote. 

Once you’re enrolled, you can change the roll you are on at any time except in the 3 months before an election. 

We are in the 3-month period before the election which means that if you’re already enrolled, the roll you’re on now is the roll you’ll be on for the 2023 General Election.
