Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose Legal Deedpolls?
Legal Deedpolls has been preparing deed polls since 2014 and is part of Online Legal Services Limited. Every deed poll is checked by our team before it is sent to you.
Is there an official deed poll office in the UK?
Yes. HM Courts and Tribunals Service runs a Deed Poll Office that enrols deed polls, which puts your name change on public record in The Gazette. Enrolment is optional and can take several weeks. Most people use an unenrolled deed poll like ours to update their passport, driving licence and bank accounts. A few organisations may ask for an enrolled deed poll; if that applies to you, contact us and we will explain the next steps.
How long will it take to change my name?
We send your deed poll and copies by free 1st Class post on the next working day.
How much does a deed poll cost?
Our deed polls are £15.99 including vat, there is a drop down box on the order page for you to choose the amount of certified copies you require.
What other costs will there be to change my name?
The authorities where you change your name such as the Passport Office and DVLA will require you to submit your deed with an official application form and fees may be charged for doing so.
Do I really need a deed poll?
Not always. If you are taking your spouse’s or civil partner’s surname, most organisations will accept your marriage or civil partnership certificate. If you are going back to your previous name after divorce, many will accept your final order or decree absolute together with your marriage certificate, although some may ask for a deed poll. For any other change, such as choosing a new name or changing a child’s name, you will need a deed poll. See when you need a deed poll. Going back to your maiden name?
