(a) Each applicant who requests registration or reregistration shall supply the following information:

(1) name and sex;

(2) address and other necessary information establishing residence, including the term of residence in the state and in the district, if requested;

(3) whether the applicant has previously been registered to vote in another jurisdiction, and, if so, the jurisdiction and the address of the previous registration;

(4) a declaration that the registrant will be 18 years of age or older within 90 days of the date or registration;

(5) a declaration that the registrant is a citizen of the United States;

(6) date of application;

(7) signature or mark;

(8) any former name under which the applicant was registered to vote in the state;

(9) an attestation that the information provided by the applicant in (1) - (8) of this subsection is true; and

(10) a certification that the applicant understands that a false statement on the application may make the applicant subject to prosecution for a misdemeanor under this title or AS 11.

(b) If the applicant has been previously registered to vote in another jurisdiction, the applicant shall surrender to the registration official any voter registration or identification card or credentials from that jurisdiction the applicant may possess. The director shall notify the chief elections officer in that jurisdiction that the applicant has registered to vote in Alaska, request that jurisdiction to cancel the applicant's voter registration there, and return the applicant's voter registration or identification card or credentials, if any, to that jurisdiction.

(c) If application for registration is made in person before a registration official, the applicant shall exhibit one form of identification to the official, including but not limited to a driver's license, birth certificate, passport, hunting or fishing license. A registration official who knows the identity of the applicant may waive the identification requirement.

(d) If the applicant requests reregistration, the applicant shall supply under oath any former name under which the applicant was registered to vote in the state.
