Gender reassignment

Due to exceptionally high demand for our services, applications are taking longer than usual to process. We are unable to provide a timescale for the completion of individual applications, so please do not contact us requesting an update. Please be assured we are working hard to complete requests as quickly as possible and we appreciate your patience at this time.

If you are applying for certificate replacements as a result of undergoing a gender reassignment, we can provide you with a certifying statement of results in your new name.

There is no charge for this service, but please note that our online system requires all applicants to enter debit/credit card details for initial pre-authorisation.

Disclaimer: Note that by pre-authorising a card payment, the amount is temporarily frozen/earmarked on your card until we release it. We will do this as quickly as possible and your card will not be charged.

ID documents needed

As well as completing the online application form, you will need to provide the following:

  • Two forms of identification in your new name, one of which must confirm your current address. For example, your current passport or photo card driving licence, together with a copy of a recent bank statement or utility bill (no more than 3 months old). 
  • Proof of your name change, for example a copy of your deed poll, statutory declaration or similar official documentation, showing both your previous and current names. 

Ensure these items are scanned in an image format (jpg, png or gif) so that they can be uploaded to the application form.

Please note that if you cannot supply the necessary documents, we will be unable to progress your application.

Completing the form

Complete the online application form, ensuring you complete all mandatory fields. You will need to provide credit/debit card details, but we will not charge you for this service (unless you request overseas delivery or tracked mail delivery in the UK, in which case a standard charge for delivery will apply).

  • Let us know if you've changed your name since you sat your exam.
  • Include any additional helpful information in your application.
  • Your school or college may be able to advise if you are unsure which exam board you sat your qualification with.
