What is the deadline to apply for a Voter Authority Certificate?

Where Stroud does not have any scheduled polls, there is no deadline.

Where Stroud does have scheduled elections (next scheduled elections are May 2024) the deadline to apply will be 5pm six working days ahead of any poll. Where an elector is registered and they have missed the deadline to apply for a Voter Authority Certificate, they can apply for an emergency proxy, however the proxy will need to present their photographic identification at the polling station.
