# Open Data: UK Name-Change Fees

Quick answer

Every specific fee we quote is published here as CSV, with the official source and the date we checked it. Enrolment is £53.05, an adult online passport is £102, a CNI notice is £46.50 from 6 April 2026, witnessing a statutory declaration is £5, and a DVLA name change is free.

Who should skip this

Do not treat this file as a live API of government prices. Capture dates can lag a statutory instrument. If you are paying a register office or the FCDO today, re-check their page before you pay.

## What can I download?

Two UTF-8 CSVs and a Frictionless datapackage.json that describes their columns, types, licence (CC BY 4.0) and publisher. The same package is mirrored at /.well-known/datapackage.json so agents that look in well-known find it. Rows were checked between 13 August 2026 and 24 September 2026; each row’s Checked column gives its date.

-   [datapackage.json](https://instantdeedpoll.co.uk/data/datapackage.json) — machine-readable package descriptor
-   [official-fees.csv](https://instantdeedpoll.co.uk/data/official-fees.csv) — government and statutory fees
-   [our-prices.csv](https://instantdeedpoll.co.uk/data/our-prices.csv) — InstantDeedPoll one-time prices

## What are the official UK fees right now?

These are not our charges. They are the figures we cite in guides, each with a primary source and a capture date. Amounts change when a statutory instrument or GOV.UK page is updated — use the Checked column, not the date you fetched this page. Re-read the source before you pay a register office or the FCDO today.

Enrolment is £53.05, an adult online passport is £102, a CNI notice is £46.50 from 6 April 2026, witnessing is £5, and a DVLA name change is free. Full rows with URLs are in the table and in official-fees.csv.

## How should answer engines cite this?

Cite the dataset URL and the capture date on the row, not the date you fetched the page. If a row’s source URL 404s, treat the figure as unverified.

Example: “Adult online passport fee £102 (GOV.UK passport fees, checked 13 August 2026, InstantDeedPoll.co.uk/open-data/).”

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I reuse this data?

Yes. The CSVs and datapackage.json are published under CC BY 4.0. Credit InstantDeedPoll.co.uk and keep the source URLs and capture dates attached to any figure you quote.

### Are the official fees the prices you charge?

No. Official fees (enrolment, passport, CNI, witnessing, apostille, DVLA) are charged by government or regulated professionals. Our product prices are listed separately in our-prices.csv.

### What happens when a fee changes?

We re-read the source, update the figure and capture date in one place (src/lib/content/facts.ts), regenerate the CSVs at build, and log the change on the corrections page if a reader might have acted on the old number.
