Getting certified copies of Lasting Power of Attorney docs

  • As above - Yes, Post Office charge to certify copies, £12.75 for up to three documents.

    They don't do the photocopying themselves (well, my local "big" P.O. didn't), and there is a form to fill in which IIRC will require at least two items of I.D. - I think one must be a photo I.D., the other a utility or bank statement from the last three months. So get your ID and photocopies sorted beforehand.

    Recently used, but I wish I'd known the above before queuing the first time.

    My solicitor (who didn't do the LPA) charged £5 per copy for me...... that was a couple of years ago.
