The document we produce is a new and very genuine replacement that verifies a previous name change. Only if you misplaced your original Deed Poll and did not return it to us for archiving are you eligible to apply for a new Deed Poll. As part of the consistent procedure, we offer Deed Polls to persons each day who have misplaced their originals.

If you would like this change to be made, which is something we strongly advocate, kindly let us know via the online application form. We need to know how and when at the very least the year you initially changed your name. This update makes it clear to everyone you give your replacement Deed Poll to that it is not for a fresh name change. Using old Deed Polls to track name changes is becoming increasingly common as more people conduct family tree research.
