Does your original Gender Recognition Certificate have a wet-ink signature, an original wet-ink or embossed seal and date from the issuing authority, or has it been certified in the UK by a practising solicitor or a notary public?
If you select NO, solicitor certification is required, and we will include it as part of the process.

You will need to send us the original document.
