Online Registration
Available
Registration Deadline
To vote, a person must be a resident of Alaska and the election district for at least 30 days before an election and be registered on or before the registration deadline
Proof of Citizenship Law
No current requirement
NoteNo active statewide documentary proof-of-citizenship voter-registration requirement as of June 2026; Alaska registration uses citizenship attestation under penalty of perjury (it is a crime to register or vote as a noncitizen). A 2026 ballot measure that would affirm citizen-only voting is being tracked separately and would not, by itself, impose documentary proof of citizenship at registration.
