Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about ID1, ID2, or ID5 form verification? You’re not alone. We’ve answered the most common queries below to help you understand the process and what to expect.
What is an ID1 form?
An ID1 form is used to confirm the identity of an individual involved in certain property or land transactions submitted to HM Land Registry. If you’re not legally represented (e.g., by a solicitor or conveyancer), you’ll likely need to complete this form.
What is an ID2 form?
An ID2 form is used when the entity involved in the property transaction is a company, partnership, or corporate body. It verifies the identity of the person signing on behalf of the organisation.
What is an ID5 form?
Form ID5 confirms that your identity was verified remotely via video call. It is used alongside ID1 or ID2 when the verification is not done in person.
Are your verification services accepted by HM Land Registry?
✅ Yes. Our service is fully compliant with HM Land Registry guidelines. All verifications are carried out by authorised professionals and the forms we provide are accepted for official submission.
