How to apply for a replacement Deed Poll
If you have lost your original Deed Poll and you did not return it to us
for archiving (as part of our Legal Copy and Archive
Service™), all you can do is apply for a new Deed Poll. This is the accepted practice
and we issue Deed Polls every day to people who have lost their original.
If you did return your Deed Poll to us for archiving, we will be able to issue
a legal copy of your original Deed Poll. To order a legal copy of your
archived Deed Poll please
click here.
Please note, if you ordered your Deed Poll from us before May 2000, we will not
have your Deed Poll archived because before this date the archive service was
not available.
If you need to apply for a new Deed Poll to replace your lost Deed Poll, please read the following:
If you are 16 years of age or over
To apply for a replacement Deed Poll, the easiest way to order (if you can pay by
debit or credit card) is to call our Helpline. Alternatively, you can apply
for a replacement Deed Poll by
clicking here.
However, before applying, please read the section below titled Completing
your application form.
Applying for a child (who is under 16 years of age)
To apply for a replacement Deed Poll for a child, who is still under 16 years of age, you can apply
online
or by
post
(please click on one of these two links). Before applying, please read
the next section.
Completing the application form
When you enter your
name details on the application form, you should enter your former name in
the current name boxes and your current name in the new name boxes. The idea
is to replicate the name change shown on your lost Deed Poll document.
Please note, if you are applying for an Adult Deed Poll, we can
modify your replacement Deed Poll to include a declaration that states you
have been using your current name for all purposes since a particular date.
If you would like this modification made, which we recommend, please complete
section 5 of the online application form.
We need to know how and when (at least the year) you originally changed you name.
This modification explains to those you show your replacement Deed Poll to
that it is not for a new name change.
Previous client fee reduction
As a previous client,
you are eligible for a fee reduction of £10. If you apply
for your replacement Deed Poll by telephone, please tell us you are a previous
client. If you apply online or by post, there is provision on the application form to
claim the fee reduction.
