A Deed Poll is a legal document. Although a Deed Poll is a form of legal contract, it's different from other legal contracts in that a Deed Poll concerns just a single individual and requires that person's signature in the presence of a witness.

Deed Poll documents are used for a range of different purposes relating to an individual or a company legally committing themselves to doing something.

Deed polls are used in the UK, Ireland, and some other commonwealth countries to commit to using a new name for all purposes. The deed poll can then be used as proof of your change of name.
