Common questions

Is a deed poll legally valid without a solicitor?

Yes. A deed poll is a legal document that you can create yourself. There is no requirement to use a solicitor or to register it anywhere. It is recognised across the UK.

What can I use my deed poll for?

You can use it to update your name with the DVLA, HM Passport Office, your bank, HMRC, your employer, your GP, and any other organisation that holds records in your old name.

Do I need to register my deed poll?

No. However, you can choose to enrol it with the Royal Courts of Justice, which makes it part of the public record. Most people do not need to do this.

Why pay if I can make one myself for free?

You can. This service generates a correctly formatted, ready-to-print document in seconds — saving you the time and effort of researching the wording and formatting it yourself.

Why do I need two witnesses?

Two adult witnesses (not relatives) are required for a UK deed poll to be legally valid. They must be present when you sign, and they must also sign the document themselves.
