In the Philippines, minors as young as 15 years old may register to vote for the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) elections, while regular voters aged 18 years old and above may vote for both the SK and Barangay elections. The SK and Barangay elections are held every three years, and the next one is scheduled for October 30, 2023. To be eligible to vote, Filipinos must have resided in the barangay for at least six months.

Here are the age requirements for voting in the SK and Barangay elections in the Philippines:

• Sangguniang Kabataan (SK) Elections: Filipinos who are at least 15 years old on or before the elections, but not more than 30 years of age, may register and vote for the SK elections.

• Barangay Elections: Filipinos who are at least 18 years of age on or before the election day and have resided in the barangay for at least six months may register and vote for the Barangay elections.

Its worth noting that in 2022, the Commission on Elections (Comelec) cleared the eligibility of 14-year-old voter registration applicants for the SK elections as long as they turn 15 on or before the election day.
