Change of Name Deed
£105 + VAT
Changing Your Name
If you are aged 16 or over, you are free to change your name. We will prepare a change of name deed stating what your name is and what you would like to change your name to. There is no legal requirement to have written evidence of your change of name, but you will find that most institutions, such as your bank, the Passport Agency and DVLA will require evidence before they will record any change.
If you have divorced or your civil partnership has been dissolved and you wish to change your name back to your maiden name, most institutions will accept a certified copy of your marriage certificate and decree absolute/final decree as sufficient evidence.
Change of Name Deed for Child Under 16
We can also prepare a change of name deed for parents wishing to change their child’s name as long as they have the required consent/s or a court order. We can assist you in relation to obtaining the required consent/court order. Please telephone or email for further information.
