San Bernardino County voters may now use a simple Change of Address Form to update residential or mailing addresses so long as the voter still resides in San Bernardino County.  Voters may submit a photo or scanned image of the completed form by fax at 909-387-2022 or by email to VoterRegistrations@rov.sbcounty.gov. Alternatively, the completed form may be returned by mail or in person to the Registrar of Voters.

Important notes:

• The Change of Address Form may not be used to register to vote, change a name, change a political party preference, change a residential address from one county to another, or request a mail ballot.
• This form must include the voter’s signature. An electronic signature cannot be accepted at this time.

On February 13, 2020, urgency legislation Senate Bill 207 [pdf] was chaptered that permits voters to update their residential address  after the registration deadline for an election without requiring voters to re-register. A written request submitted to the Registrar of Voters is sufficient.

To assist voters, the Registrar of Voters created a Change of Address Form for voters to use.

If you Vote by Mail

No later than seven days before an election, print and complete a Change of Address Form and submit a photo or scanned image of the signed form to the Registrar of Voters by fax at 909-386-8388, by email to MailBallots@rov.sbcounty.gov or in person. Indicate on your fax cover sheet or in your email that you would like to be sent a replacement mail ballot based upon your new address.

You will receive the correct ballot at your polling place on Election Day.

On Election Day, you may also bring a completed form to any polling place in the county or fill out the form at the polling place. You will then receive your correct ballot to vote.
