You must be registered to vote by mail 30 days prior to the election or you may register in-person or online 15 days prior to the election you wish to vote in.

You can register to vote in Utah the following ways:

Online Registration--By using your signature on file at the Driver License Division, voters may now register to vote completely online. Please follow the instructions on the new Online Voter Registration website.

Paper--Voters may download and print either the Utah Voter Registration Form or a National Voter Registration Form (for individuals who are residents of another state). Once completed, this form should be mailed to your county clerk's office. This form must be postmarked at least 30 days before the election to be registered for the upcoming election. Valid identification is always required at the polls.

In-Person Registration--A voter may register to vote in person at the county clerk's office up to 15 days before the election. Voters will only be eligible to vote on election day and not during the early voting period. Location listings are available through your county clerk's office.
