New Driving Licence - Name Change
Discussion
Sorry. Maybe I’m being a bit thick this morning.
Mrs BC and I married last year so she now needs a driving licence with her new name. She already has a new passport.
We’re reading this on the form but really don’t want to post the original marriage certificate. Is that what they want or do they take the ID from her passport number?

Can you get multiple copies of a Wedding Certificate (like you do with Death Certificates) so you can send them off willy-nilly to everyone who needs to change the name?https://www.gov.uk/id-for-driving-licence

Thanks, I wasn’t finding that. She has a new passport so we’ll just use the number."If your name or gender has changed
