Fees for updating records

The main costs involved will be £82.50 for a replacement passport, if applicable. There is no charge to update the name on your driving license provided you can surrender your current license. Most organisations don’t charge fees unless you need credentials or certificates replaced.

How to update your records

It’s your responsibility to contact each and every organisation where you hold an account, membership or identification and notify them of your new name. Organisations all set their own name change policy and can dictate how you inform them and what proof to provide. Sometimes you can notify over the phone, other times you will be required to send a form, visit a branch in person or send a letter. You may be asked to show your original deed poll or a photocopy.  Researching name change procedures for all your organisations, finding forms, then creating notification letters and emails usually takes upward of 8 hours!
