Brazil’s 2026 Elections: A Quick Overview
Brazil’s electoral process is run by the Electoral Justice, led by the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) together with the regional electoral courts.
In 2026, voting takes place nationwide from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Brasília time on October 4 for the first round, with a possible second round on October 25 for the presidential and gubernatorial races.
Locating your assigned polling place is one of the most basic steps of taking part in the election.
The TSE offers official ways to check it online, so every voter can confirm where to go well before election day.
Getting familiar with these official channels ahead of time saves you time and prevents problems on the day. The sections below explain each step.
Your Documents: Voter Card and Photo ID
Every voter in Brazil has a voter registration document, known as the “Título de Eleitor”.
The physical card used to be essential, but its role has changed with technology. What is always required at the polls is a valid official photo ID.
Accepted documents include the national identity card (RG), a passport, a driver’s licence (CNH) or a work card.
The “e-Título” app, the digital version of the voter card, can also work as photo ID, but only if it displays your photo.
The photo appears for voters who have registered biometrics and completed identification in the app.
If your “e-Título” shows no photo, you vote normally by presenting one of the other official photo IDs listed above.
Whatever ID you use, your registration must be regular: a cancelled registration (“título cancelado”) prevents you from voting, and having the app does not change that.
The Official Channels to Find Your Polling Place
The TSE provides two official routes to check where you vote: the “e-Título” mobile app and the TSE website.
Both show your electoral zone (“zona”), your section (“seção”) and the full address of your polling place, straight from the Electoral Justice’s records.
Using these official channels is what guarantees the information is correct.
Third-party websites can show outdated or wrong data, so always confirm your polling place through one of these two routes.
How to Find Your Polling Place on “e-Título”
The “e-Título” app brings the main voter services together on your phone. To use it, download the official app from your phone’s app store and sign in with your CPF.
- Download the official “e-Título” app from your phone’s app store.
- Sign in with your CPF and follow the steps to activate the app.
- On the home screen, open the “Onde Votar” option.
- Check your electoral zone, your section and the full address of your polling place.
- If you like, use the app’s route guidance to get there on election day.
Mind the deadline: according to the TSE, new downloads and first-time registration in “e-Título” are suspended on election day to prevent system overload.
If you want to use the app in the first round, download and activate it by October 3, 2026. If you have already activated it, you can use it normally on Sunday.

How to Find Your Polling Place on the TSE Website
The TSE website offers the same lookup without installing anything. It works in any browser, on a computer or a phone, and is a good alternative or complement to the app.
- Go to the TSE website and open “Autoatendimento Eleitoral – Título Net”.
- In the “Consultas” menu, choose “Onde votar”.
- Enter your voter registration number (“número do título”) with your date of birth and your mother’s full name, or search by full name or CPF.
- After submitting, the screen shows your electoral zone, your section and the complete address of your polling place.
It is a good idea to check well before election day, so there is time to sort out any doubt.
What If You Can’t Find Your Polling Place?
If the lookup does not work, first check that you typed everything correctly: the numbers of your registration or CPF, your date of birth and the spelling of your mother’s name.
Make sure you are on the official TSE website or the official “e-Título” app, not on a third-party site.
If the result shows a problem with your registration, such as a cancelled registration, you will not be able to vote in 2026.
The deadline to reinstate a registration, change polling place or transfer your voting address ended on May 6, 2026, and these services only return to electoral offices after the second round. For guidance on your specific case, you can call the voter hotline (“Disque-Eleitor”) on 148.
Important Dates and Voting Hours
The first round of voting is on Sunday, October 4, 2026. For president and governor, if no candidate wins more than half of the valid votes, a second round is held on Sunday, October 25, 2026. Only these two races can go to a second round.
On both days, polling places across the country open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Brasília time. Plan to arrive with time to spare rather than close to closing time.
The offices at stake in 2026 are president and vice president, governor and vice governor, two Senate seats, federal deputy and state or district deputy.
Understanding Your Electoral Zone and Section
Your voting details in Brazil come down to two numbers: the electoral zone (“zona eleitoral”) and the section (“seção eleitoral”).
The zone is a broader division of the Electoral Justice, and the section is a smaller unit inside it: a specific group of voters assigned to the same voting machine at a polling place.
Both numbers appear in your lookup, next to the full address. At the polling place, they tell you exactly which room to go to.
| Term | What it is | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Electoral zone (“zona eleitoral”) | A broader division of the Electoral Justice. | Defines the area where your registration is recorded. |
| Section (“seção eleitoral”) | A smaller unit inside the zone, tied to one voting machine. | Tells you which room and machine you vote at. |
| Polling place (“local de votação”) | The address of the building where your section is set up. | The place you actually go to vote. |
What to Bring on Election Day
Once you know where you vote, the last step is getting ready for the day itself.
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Photo ID | “e-Título” with your photo, or an official photo ID such as RG, passport, CNH or work card. |
| Biometrics | With a regular registration, you can vote even without biometrics on file. |
| Mobile phone | Forbidden inside the voting booth. Leave it where the poll workers indicate. |
| Written note | The TSE recommends bringing your candidates’ numbers written down, known as a “colinha”. |
What If You Can’t Vote?
Voters who do not vote must justify their absence for each round, as each round counts as a separate election.
It can be done on election day itself or afterwards within the deadline, always through the Electoral Justice’s official channels.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I vote without my physical voter card?Yes. The physical “Título de Eleitor” is not required. An official photo ID, or “e-Título” with your photo, is enough, as long as your registration is regular.
Can I change my polling place now?No. The deadline to change polling place or transfer your registration ended on May 6, 2026, and the service only returns to electoral offices after the second round.
Does “e-Título” count as ID?Only if it displays your photo, which happens for voters with registered biometrics who completed identification in the app. Without a photo, bring another official photo ID.
Can I look up my polling place with my CPF?Yes. “e-Título” signs in with your CPF, and the TSE’s “Autoatendimento Eleitoral” also accepts a search by CPF or full name.
Does the “e-Título” app work on election day?Yes, for voters who have already activated it. New downloads and first-time registration are suspended on election day, so activate it by October 3, 2026.
My registration is cancelled. Can I vote?No. A cancelled registration cannot vote in 2026, having the app does not change that, and reinstatement only reopens after the second round.
