Schedule 4, Part 2, paragraph 2

Where a partner (or proposed partner) is an individual, the required information about the partner is— name, date of birth and nationality; any relevant former names; usual residential address; the part of the United Kingdom in which the individual is usually resident or, if the individual is usually resident in a country or state outside the United Kingdom, that country or state; in the case of a general partner, a service address (which may be stated as “The limited partnership’s registered office”). In sub-paragraph (1)(b) “relevant former name” means any former name other than— in the case of a peer, or an individual normally known by a British title, the name by which the individual was known previous to the adoption of or succession to the title, or in the case of any person, a former name which— was changed or disused before the person attained the age of 16 years, or has been changed or disused for 20 years or more. In this paragraph— “former name” means a name by which the individual was formerly known for business purposes; “name” means the individual’s forename and surname. Where a partner (or proposed partner) who is an individual is a peer or an individual usually known by a title, any requirement imposed by this Act to provide the individual’s name because it forms part of the required information may be satisfied by providing that title instead of the individual’s forename and surname.
