How we will contact you

If we have your email address, we’ll send you an email with instructions on how to reapply for your postal vote. The email will have the subject line ‘Rotherham Council – Postal Vote Reapplication’ and will be sent using the GOV.UK Notify system.

If we don’t have your email address, we’ll contact you by post before the deadline.

You don’t need to wait to hear from us. You can reapply for your postal vote at any time before 31 January 2026.

Please note: people in the same household may receive their reapplication invitations at different times. This depends on whether we have their email address and when their original application was made.

We’re using email to help reduce costs. Please respond as soon as you can.

The quickest way to reapply is online. If you need a paper application form, you can request one using our contact form.
