If a State or political subdivision requires an individual to present identification for the purposes of voting or registering to vote in an election for Federal office, an identification card issued by a federally recognized Tribal Government, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Indian Health Service, or any other Tribal or Federal agency issuing identification cards to Indian voters shall be treated as a valid form of identification for such purposes. An individual shall not be required to show that a Tribal identification card includes a residential address or an expiration date in order for such Tribal identification card to be considered valid for purposes of voting or registering to vote.
The voter may instead separately designate the voter's appropriate voting precinct through a description of the voter's address that conforms with the regulations for national mail voter registration forms, as established under section 9428.4(a)(2) of title 11, Code of Federal Regulations. If a State or political subdivision requires an identification card for an individual to register to vote online or to vote online, that State or political subdivision shall consider an identification card as described in subsection
(a)to be a valid form of identification for the purpose of registering to vote online or voting online.
