ID1 Form
Notarisation and Apostille Services for ID1 Form
At Wharf Notaries, we provide prompt notarisation and legalisation services for your Land Registry documentation, including the ID1 Form. Notarising an ID1 Form involves the verification of your identity and certification by a qualified notary public, ensuring the document’s authenticity for recognition by the Land Registry and in various legal contexts.
What is an ID1 Form?
An ID1 Form is used to verify your identity, primarily in property transactions to prevent identity fraud and money laundering. It is typically required when submitting an application to the HM Land Registry for properties valued at £6,000 or more. The form includes personal details such as:
- Title
- Full name
- Date of birth
- Current address
- Duration of residence at this address
- Addresses for the past five years
- Contact numbers
- Type of application
- Title numbers
- Address of the property being purchased
Once Section A is filled out, a notary public must verify your identity and complete the rest of the document.
Identity Verification for an ID1 Form
Before submitting your ID1 Form, your identity must be verified. A notary can usually complete this on the same day. To verify your identity, you must visit our office with one of the following:
- Valid Passport
- Current UK Driving Licence
- Biometric Residence Permit
Alternatively, you can provide two of the following:
- Credit/debit card and a recent bank statement (within three months)
- Utility bill (within three months)
- Current council tax bill
- Council rent book with three months of rent paid
- Previous year’s mortgage statement
- Current firearm certificate
If you prefer to complete the verification via video call, you will need to fill in an ID5 Form instead.
