Default Removal from Electoral Register

We are having elections here in Northern Ireland in the next day or two, couldn't tell you when as I accidently (on purpose) threw out my polling card, OOPSIES....

So then it got me thinking, how do I go about removing myself from the electoral register, or should I just leave myself on it? Hmmmmm, anyone?

You can continue voting in Northern Ireland (except for local elections) if you so wish.

They'll send a form to your NI address next August/September asking all occupants to re-register.

As you will be away and therefore unable to complete the form and sign it - they will remove you automatically (after a few months).

[Unless you re-register as per danfolkstone's post above.]

Hi Jen we phoned the local election office and they just required a letter informing them of your wishes. They also got back to us very quickly informing us it had been done. I felt happier taking myself off because of voting id theft in Ni and the electoral roll being used for all sorts of identity confirmation.
