Voter ID card

This policy is made to all FSM Voters who wish to apply for Voter ID Cards.

The National Election Commissioner shall receive Voter ID applications on a continuing and regular basis until 20 days immediately prior to the Special Election.

By virtue of the FSM National Election Director's authority, printing of VID Cards will temporarily be halted effective Sept. 30, 2009 until after the upcoming Pohnpei-FSM 2009 Special Election. Therefore, I urge anyone who wishes to obtain VID Cards to appear at the FSM National Election Office on or before the date stated above.

Thank you,
Kimeuo Kimiuo
Director
