A deed poll is a legal document that allows you to officially change your name in the UK. It is legally recognised by the UK Government and accepted by banks, HMRC, the Passport Office, DVLA, and other organisations.
With a deed poll, you can:
-
Change your first name, surname, or both
-
Update your name on bank accounts, HMRC records, and official documents
-
Ensure your name change is legally recognised across all UK organisations
-
Use it to update passports, driving licences, and other identity documents
-
Gain full legal control over your identity
You may need a deed poll if you want to legally change your name in the UK. It’s the simplest way to make your new name official and recognised by all major organisations, including banks, HMRC, the Passport Office, and the DVLA.
You’ll need a deed poll if you want to:
-
Change your first name, surname, or both
-
Ensure your new name is legally recognised
-
Update official documents such as passports, driving licences, and bank accounts
-
Make your name change valid for all UK Government and legal purposes
Even if your change is personal, professional, or due to marriage, a deed poll provides a legally recognised solution to make it official.
A deed poll must be signed in the presence of an independent witness to be legally valid. Your witness should:
-
Be over 18 years old
-
Not be a family member or someone who will benefit from your name change
-
Be someone who can confirm your identity if required
Common witnesses include friends, colleagues, or professionals such as solicitors or notaries. Once signed and witnessed, your deed poll becomes a legally recognised document accepted by banks, HMRC, the Passport Office, and other organisations.
Our legally recognised deed polls start at just £19.95. Apply before 3 PM (Mon–Fri) for same-day processing, with secure Royal Mail delivery.
We guarantee acceptance by the UK Government, or your money back, giving you peace of mind and a hassle-free, legally valid name change.
