  1. We have amended the wording in panel 2 to reflect the wording used in the Gender Recognition Act 2004.

  2. We have updated the form to clarify our handling of applications and to incorporate the required warning note to the base of the form.

  3. We have amended the form following a review of our practice in this area. The biggest change is that the list of evidence acceptable to support an application made on this form has been expanded.

  4. We have added side notes to panel 3 to explain the situations where a customer’s previous name would still appear in the register and in documents filed with HM Land Registry.
