Deed Poll – Name Change Documents

A Deed Poll is an official legal document used in the UK to prove that you have changed your name. It allows you to update your name on passports, driving licences, bank accounts, and other official records.

If you need to use your Deed Poll overseas, it must often be legalised with an apostille so that foreign authorities will recognise it.
