InstantDeedPoll.co.uk is an independent document service and is not affiliated with HM Government. We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice. Our documents use professionally drafted, widely accepted wording; if your circumstances are complex, consult a solicitor.
Quick answer
A deed poll records your decision to use a new name. Our £14.99 service prepares a personalised PDF for you to print and sign with two witnesses. You then apply to update your records using each organisation’s evidence requirements. Free government wording is also available if you prefer to prepare your own document.

Where it’s accepted
Who accepts a deed poll you print at home?
A correctly signed home-printed deed poll can provide evidence of a name change. Each organisation sets its own evidence requirements. Check your route before buying, especially if a bank asks for an enrolled deed poll or additional documents.

| DVLA | Yes, free | D1 (car/motorcycle) or D2 (lorry/bus), current licence, original deed and evidence showing the new name in use |
