What the Voter ID Verification API does

The Voter ID Verification API checks an EPIC (voter ID) number against the Election Commission record and returns the registered name, relative’s name and relation, gender, age, state, district and assembly constituency. Electoral-roll spellings often differ from PAN or Aadhaar, so pair it with the Name Match API.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if the EPIC number has no record?

It returns 404 and is not charged.

The name differs from the PAN — is that a fraud signal?

Not necessarily. Electoral rolls often spell names differently. Compare them with the Name Match API rather than an exact string match.

How much does the Voter ID Verification API cost?

The Voter ID Verification API on API Sathi starts at ₹1.50 per successful call plus 18% GST, paid from a prepaid wallet. There is no monthly fee or minimum volume, and recharges of ₹1,000 or more earn bonus credit. Live prices for every API are on the pricing page.

Can I test the Voter ID Verification API for free?

Yes. Every account gets a TEST key that calls the Voter ID Verification API in the sandbox at no cost and returns realistic sample responses, so you can finish your integration before adding money to the wallet.

Am I charged if a Voter ID Verification API call fails?

No. You pay only for successful calls. If the source is unavailable, times out or rejects the request, the amount held for that call is released straight back to your wallet.
