Voters all across the country will have to bring proof of ID if they plan to vote at a polling station for the local election.
On May 4, council seats across the country will be up for grabs and will see Brits head to their local polling station to hand in their ballot. However, the rules for this year's election are slightly different than last because you will need to have some form of ID on hand in order to be allowed to vote.
It comes after new legislation came into place which the government claims will help prevent voter fraud. During the last general election, according to the Electoral Commission, 595 cases of alleged electoral fraud were investigated - of which four led to a conviction.
