Frequently Asked Questions
What is Deed Poll?
Deed Poll Meaning: It is a legal document that proves you've changed your name. Also known as a "Change of Name Deed," it shows you've stopped using your old name, started using a new one, and want others to use it too. To be valid, it must be signed in the presence of two witnesses.
Adult Deed Poll – for anyone aged 16 or over.
Child Deed Poll – for anyone under 16. The document must be signed by everyone with parental responsibility, usually the mother and/or father. Learn more about Child Deed Poll.
Who can act as a witness?
Anyone over 18 can witness your Deed Poll, as long as they know you and are independent. Being ‘independent’ means they must not be a relative, partner, or someone who lives at the same address as you.
Any restrictions on names and titles?
You can change your name for any reason, as long as it’s not for deceptive or fraudulent purposes. You can also update your title (such as Mr, Miss, Mx, Dr, etc.) on your Deed Poll, as long as the change is genuine.
How long does the process take?
Our secure online application only takes a few minutes to complete. We prepare and post your documents the next working day.
• Standard Service (Free 1st Class Delivery): Receive your deed poll in 3–4 working days.
• Premium Delivery (1–2 Day Service): Get your deed poll in just 1–2 working days.
What to do after signing?
Once your Deed Poll is signed, dated, and witnessed, you should contact all organisations that hold your personal details to let them know about your name change. They’ll update their records and may reissue documents in your new name if needed.
For government departments and public bodies, it’s best to send the original Deed Poll, not a photocopy—unless they specifically say otherwise.
Do I need to send it back to you?
There’s no need to send your Deed Poll back to us. Once you've signed it, you can start using it straight away.
