Do I need to use the UK government to change my name?

Are you considering changing your name but unsure if you need to involve the government in the process? The short answer is no, you do not need to involve the government to change your name. However, if you need your new name for legal purposes, such as for your passport or driver's license, you will need to provide government agencies with a copy of your deed poll as evidence of your name change.

We provide unenrolled deed polls that are legally recognized by government agencies such as the Passport Office and the DVLA. Our unenrolled deed polls allow you to officially change your name without involving the government, as they provide proof of your name change that is accepted by these agencies.
