At First Law Solicitors, we provide professional verification and certification of ID1 and ID2 forms required by HM Land Registry.
These forms confirm your identity in property and land transactions where you are not represented by a solicitor or conveyancer.
Our solicitors ensure that your identity verification is completed correctly, in full compliance with current Land Registry and digital verification standards, so your transaction can proceed without delay.
The ID1 Form is used to verify the identity of an individual involved in a property transaction, such as a transfer, mortgage or lease.
The ID2 Form serves the same purpose for companies, confirming the identity of directors or authorised signatories acting on the company’s behalf.
HM Land Registry requires these forms when a party is not legally represented, to prevent identity fraud and ensure transparency in property ownership.
Each form must be verified by a solicitor, licensed conveyancer or regulated professional who confirms that the person has been properly identified and that the documents have been checked against valid proof of identity.
Our solicitors complete this process accurately, ensuring the forms meet every Land Registry requirement.
We offer fast and reliable appointments to certify ID1 and ID2 forms for both individuals and companies.
At your appointment, we verify your identity, complete the relevant form and add our official certification.
You will need to bring original identification documents, such as a valid passport, photocard driving licence or government-issued ID, along with proof of address.
For companies, we also review relevant corporate documents or Companies House records to confirm authority to act.
If you are based outside the United Kingdom, we can provide remote digital verification under the Digital Verification Services (DVS) framework, using secure video identification and Qualified Electronic Signatures (QES) where accepted by the Land Registry.
This approach ensures that even overseas or remote clients can have their ID forms completed efficiently and in full compliance with digital identity rules.
Since 2025, HM Land Registry has supported digital identity verification through approved DVS platforms.
Our solicitors can verify your identity and certify your forms electronically, ensuring full traceability and compliance with UK GDPR and the Data (Use and Access) Act 2025.
Remote Witnessing: Where permitted, we use secure video conferencing and digital certification to verify and sign your ID1 or ID2 forms remotely. This service provides convenience for clients who are unable to attend in person while maintaining legal validity under current electronic conveyancing rules.
All digital verification records are stored securely within our systems and overseen by the Information Commission (formerly the ICO).
Incorrect or incomplete ID verification is one of the most common reasons for Land Registry delays and rejections.
We ensure that every ID1 and ID2 form we certify is accurate, properly signed and accepted the first time it is submitted.
Our solicitors guide you through the process, explain the documents you need to bring, and confirm exactly how and where your certified forms must be sent.
This careful approach prevents administrative errors and ensures that your property transaction remains on schedule.
At First Law Solicitors, we combine efficiency with legal precision.
We understand how important timing is in property transactions, and we ensure that your ID1 and ID2 certification is completed quickly and correctly.
Our solicitors are authorised to verify identity documents for both individuals and companies, whether for sales, transfers, mortgages or Land Registry updates.
We offer flexible appointments, including secure digital options, and provide confirmation of certification for your records.
With us, you can be confident that your identity verification will meet the highest professional and regulatory standards.
