Online service

We enable you to draft the document required to change your name (known as a 'deed poll') online at a low and reasonable cost.

The online drafting process is simple – just answer our questions and watch your bespoke document being drafted, then download, sign and use. You can also try out any of our document drafting processes by clicking on the ‘TRY FOR FREE’ button (note that under this option certain parts of the document will be obscured until paid for). If you wish to have the added reassurance of a SOLICITOR REVIEW of your drafted document this service is also available at a small additional fixed fee.

Documents to use

Change of name (person aged 14 years or more) 

This process will create a deed poll and the other documents required to change the surname and/or first name of persons aged 14 years or older. However, if you are aged between 14 and 17 you will need parental consent to sign this document. You also have the option to 'enrol' this document at the High Court and the required application form is also prepared if you indicate that this is your intention. A deed poll is a signed declaration by a person that binds them to a particular course of action from the date of signing. A deed poll for a change of name contains declarations (in other words a sworn statement) that you are abandoning the use of your old name, that you will use your new name at all times and that you require everyone to use your new name.
