A fresh voters list is prepared prior to each National Election. This is prepared from registration books compiled by registration officers. The register contains the names, addresses, gender, chiefdom and registration number of all registered voters. The Constitution clearly outlines the duty of the electoral management body (EMB) to oversee the entire exercise.

Until provisions for it were made in the 1992 Voters Registration Order, no registration of voters was undertaken in Swaziland.
