  • are Australian citizens (or a British subject who was on the roll between 26 October 1983 and 25 January 1984)
  • have lived at their current address for at least one month.

Electors who are aged 17 years can provisionally enrol. They can only vote when they reach 18 years of age.

Enrolled electors are eligible to vote in Commonwealth, State and local government elections.
