Land Registry ID1 or ID2 Forms

Verifying identity to support your property transaction

Certain Land Registry applications require ID verification using an official form known as an ID1 (for individuals) or ID2 (for companies).

At Hopkins Solicitors, we offer a straightforward and efficient service to help you meet this legal requirement without unnecessary delay.

Whether you’re acting privately or in a transaction involving another solicitor, we’ll ensure your form is correctly completed and your identity verified.

What’s Involved

Our service typically includes:

• Verifying your identity – confirming your ID and residency using valid documents (such as passport or driving licence).
• Completing the ID1 or ID2 form – including your personal and / or company details and certifying a photo that you provide.
• Certifying the form – we act as the authorised professional and complete the official certification on your behalf. This can only be completed by a qualified professional who is registered with an authorised regulator.
• Providing copies – for use in your Land Registry application or to send to your solicitor.

An ID1 or ID2 form will usually relate to a specific transaction that you are involved in. Whilst our ID verification service does not include advice on the underlying transaction, we will usually be able to provide this separately if you wish.

Things to Consider

• Booking an appointment: We’ll need to see you in person with original documents – appointments are usually available at short notice.
• Valid ID: You’ll need current and acceptable forms of ID – we’ll advise you in advance to avoid wasted trips.
• Timing: Some Land Registry applications are time-sensitive – don’t leave your ID1 or ID2 form too late.

We offer a fixed fee service of £300 inclusive of VAT.
