Witness Information

Your deed poll must be signed in front of a witness — choose how to provide their details

A deed poll is only legally valid when signed in the presence of an independent witness (aged 18 or over, and not a family member). You can either enter your witness details now, or leave them blank and fill them in by hand when you sign.

Do you have your witness details ready?

Most people choose 1 witness. If you don’t have their details yet, no problem — the fields will be left blank on your printed deed poll for you to complete by hand.

Your deed poll is just the beginning — updating your name everywhere is the hard part

What happens after you receive your deed poll?

Once your deed poll arrives, you'll need to contact every organisation that holds your name — your bank, the Passport Office, HMRC, DVLA, your GP, utility providers, insurance companies, and more. On average, people need to update over 30 organisations, each with different requirements, forms, and processing times.

Our Complete Name Change package guides you through the entire process step by step.

Would you like the Complete Name Change package?

Without the Complete Package you won’t receive step-by-step guidance, template letters, or a tracking dashboard. Most customers find updating organisations on their own time-consuming and confusing.

Delivery & Copies

Your deed poll includes 1 printed copy via Royal Mail Tracked

Most organisations keep your deed poll on file and will not return it, so you will likely need several copies.

Included with your order 1 × Printed Deed Poll Royal Mail Tracked · 2–3 working days

Additional Legal Copies *

Please indicate the number of additional legal copies you would like to order. We recommend requesting at least 8 extra copies, as photocopies are generally not accepted.
