TSE Allows e‑Título Downloads on Voting Day

The electoral court says upgraded backend systems will keep the app online for both rounds so voters with biometric photos can use it as official ID.

Overview

  • The TSE confirmed on Saturday that the e‑Título can be downloaded and activated on election day for both rounds scheduled for October 4 and October 25.
  • Voters are still urged to download or update the app and complete first access at home to avoid peak‑time validation problems and reduce load on the system.
  • The app consolidates services such as polling‑place lookup, absence justification, issuing electoral certificates, payment of electoral debts and mesário registration.
  • The e‑Título is accepted as a photo ID only when the voter’s biometric registration and photograph appear in the app, otherwise a traditional official photo ID must be presented.
  • The change reverses prior election‑day suspensions after the TSE strengthened infrastructure and updated the app in 2026 with real‑time synchronization and payment features, which should cut the risk of outages on voting day.
