How to find your election precinct online today

Traditionally, Filipino voters would have to go to their respective voting centers and manually check for themselves their precinct numbers and sequence numbers. With the advent of automated elections 48 in the Philippines, online means have been introduced for citizens to find their precincts. Here is a concise guide on how to search for it online.

Step 1

Visit the official COMELEC Precinct Finder website online at https://voterverifier.comelec.gov.ph/voter_precinct 5.9K

Step 2

Once you have loaded the page, select your location (Philippines or overseas), and fill in a few key details such as your complete name, and the place (province, city/municipality) where you are registered as a voter.

While the website is very straightforward with its requirements, there may also be specific rules on how to put in your name. For example, you may need to abbreviate or spell out in full some names like Maria/Ma., Jr/Junior/III.

Step 3

Once you have filled the forms, you are required to run the captcha test and get it verified before pressing the blue button (search). If the database recognizes your details, the page will present your precinct information including the location (polling place) and precinct number. The status of your voter registration is also presented. Remember to take note of the data or have a screenshot for your reference.

COMELEC notes that no personal information is being stored when you access this platform. Also, the website may take time in loading. If you happen to encounter this, patience is a virtue.

If these steps still did not work, you may try to contact your local Commission on Elections (COMELEC) office that has jurisdiction over your registration. We hope this quick guide helped you in your search!

The voter precinct finder has been launched on April 22, 2022 in coordination with the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), which hosts cloud services for COMELEC for this year’s elections.
