Change of Name Deed service

Whether you wish to restore an old family surname, shorten your name, or revert to a maiden or birth name following divorce, we offer a straightforward and reliable Change of Name Deed service.

Official stamp

We handle the paperwork with care and discretion so you can update your records with confidence. Our fixed fee for this service is £300 plus VAT, with no surprises, and the deed will be accepted by banks, passport authorities, HMRC and other official bodies.

When people typically use a Change of Name Deed

Clients come to us for a Change of Name Deed for all sorts of reasons — marriage, divorce, family reasons, cultural or religious reasons, or simply personal preference. Whatever the reason, the process itself is the same, and we handle it in the way that most suits you.

What is included in our fixed fee

Our fixed fee of £300 plus VAT covers the preparation of your Change of Name Deed, witnessing where required, and providing you with the signed and sealed deed suitable for updating your records with the passport office, HMRC, DVLA, your bank and other official bodies. There are no additional charges for the drafting itself — the fee is fixed at the outset.

Changing a child’s name

Changing a child’s name requires the consent of everyone with parental responsibility, or a court order in the absence of consent. We are happy to advise on the position and, where necessary, to represent you in any related application.
