Discover e-Título, your digital voter registration card 

e-Título is a mobile application that leaves your title with a photo on your mobile device. And it allows you to quickly and securely access the information contained therein.

In addition to your title number, the e-Titulo also contains information such as your fingerprint, voting location and even your electoral status.

For those who have already registered the biometrics that were collected by the Federal Court in recent years, this mobile document serves as a form of full identification on voting day.

Remembering that you can use the e-title both in the first round that takes place on October 2, 2022, and in a possible second round that takes place on October 30, 2022.

How to get a digital voter registration card?

The digital voter registration card is free and made available to all Brazilians by the Electoral Court. 

You can download the application on your smartphone or tablet, as long as you have the IOS or Android operating system.

Once downloaded, it is very easy, as the application tries to use very simple language to reach a wider population.

Enter your personal details into the app and that's it, your title will be working. If your photo does not appear, you will need to bring a photo ID to prove your identity.

How to use the digital voter registration card?

Now that I have the app downloaded to my phone and have all the information I need, you must be wondering how to use it on election day, right?

It's very simple. First, you must check that all the information is correct, such as your title number, CPF, ID, date of birth and electoral zone.

After this confirmation, you must go to your polling station within the election hours, which are from 8 am to 5 pm.

Once there, the person responsible for your session will ask for your title and a document and you can show the e-Título application, remembering that a printout is not considered valid.

Always show the original on your cell phone, after which the poll worker will identify you in the voting notebook and will release the ballot box so that you can vote in the voting booth.

After finishing your vote, just go back to the poll worker and get your receipt.

If you have completed your digital biometrics, you will not need to sign the electoral register, but if you have not, the poll worker will request your signature before handing over your receipt.

Who should vote in the 2022 Elections?

As we have already mentioned in this text, voting is mandatory for Brazilian men and women aged between 18 and 69.

For younger people (aged 16 and 17), older people (aged 70 or over) and illiterate people, voting is optional.

In other words, people can vote if they want, without any kind of obligation, unlike other audiences.

Is there a deadline to acquire the digital voter registration card?

If you are wondering if there is a deadline to obtain the e-title, the answer is yes. There is an established deadline for everything involving elections and electoral justice.

The first deadline is for regulating your voter registration. What does that mean? Well, this includes services such as changing your voting location and regulating your CPF if you have not voted previously.

This deadline was May 4, 2022, and this was also the final deadline to issue voter registration cards for those who did not yet have one.

After everything was regulated, there was a deadline to request a temporary change of voting location. How does it work?

If you are not in your city on election day and want to vote, until August 30th you could have requested a temporary change just for the first round of the election.

And now that everything is in order, you can download your e-title and it also has a deadline and it is October 1st at 11:59 pm, that is, it will only not be allowed to purchase it on election day.

Conclusion

Now that you know how to get your digital voter registration card and have learned a little more about its importance, it's easier, right?

The next step is to download the application on your cell phone within the deadline to be able to use your e-Title next Sunday.

And remember: do your research before choosing your candidates. They are the ones who will represent you for the next 4 years! 

And, of course, don't forget to bring your cheat sheet with your candidates' numbers. This is a great way to avoid going blank when voting, and it also helps to speed up your voting process!
