Date of birth - you will need to provide ONE of the following as evidence:

  • driving licence (provided DoB is clearly shown) 
  • birth Certificate in current name 
  • birth Certificate plus proof of name change 
  • non-UK National Identity Card 
  • marriage/Civil Partnership Certificate 
  • NHS Medical Card, letter or prescription 

Address - you will need to provide ONE of the following as evidence:

Ideally this should be your Council Tax bill for the current tax year.

If you are not named on the Council Tax bill, then send a copy of one of the following, dated within the last 12 months;

  • utility bill in your name (gas, electricity, water)
  • personal landline telephone bill 
  • letter from a government department e.g. benefits letter or NHS letter
  • Council or housing association receipt for rent or tenancy agreement

Please note that we cannot accept bank statements or driving licence as address evidence, because this does not prove a residential address.

If you can't provide these documents please contact us for advice.
