    From vote.nz

    You don’t need to take your driver licence, your passport, or anything else with you to a voting place. No ID is required.

    Your EasyVote card, if you have one, will make voting faster – but you can vote without it.

    When you go to vote, you’re either marked off the printed roll at the voting place, or your details are recorded. During the official count, we compare all the rolls from all the voting places in each electorate to make sure everyone has only voted once.

    So you don’t require ID, but you get sent an easy vote card, to speed up the process when you go to vote. It is super quick though, usually less than 5 minutes to vote usually.
