Nomination papers

You can download a copy of the nomination papers for each division on this page.

The Electoral Commission offers excellent guidance regarding the completion of nomination papers for an election. Please refer to their guidance or seek your own legal advice before completing a set of nomination papers.

Candidates and Election Agents can submit completed nomination papers between 10am - 4pm from Monday 24 March 2025 and every working day thereafter between 10am - 4pm, until 4pm on Wednesday 2 April 2025. Election Agents may contact the elections team to book an appointment so appropriate staff resources are in place to informally check papers from every division. Appointments can be made with the elections team by phone on 01303 853188 or email at elections@folkestone-hythe.gov.uk.
