According to the provisions of the Electoral Code in its article 74, the electoral lists are permanent. They are subject to an annual review throughout the national territory which starts on January 1 and ends on August 31. The revision of the electoral lists counting for the year 2018 was launched on the whole national territory and with the diaspora Camerounaise.

It will continue until 31 August 2018, unless convened by the Head of State for the Electoral Corps for a possible election. To this end, the staff of Elections Cameroon who accompany the other actors of the electoral process, for the establishment of a credible and transparent electoral register with regard to the elections of 2018, are mobilized on the ground, in the ten regions of the national triangle to enlist the maximum number of Cameroonians on the electoral lists
