If you have a singular name, meaning you only have one legal name and do not have both a first name and last name, the steps for completing a criminal record check depend on the country where the check is being completed.
UK criminal record checks
If you are completing a UK criminal record check and only have one legal name:
- Enter your legal name in the applicable first name or last name field.
- Enter X in the name field that does not apply to you.
For example, if you only have a first name and do not have a last name, enter X in the last name field.
Canadian criminal record checks
If you are completing a Canadian criminal record check and only have one legal name:
- Enter your legal name in the applicable first name or last name field.
- Enter a hyphen (-) in the name field that does not apply to you.
For example, if you only have a last name and do not have a first name, enter - in the first name field.
US criminal record checks
US criminal record checks require both a first name and last name.
If you have a singular name and do not have both a first name and last name, the US criminal record check cannot be completed and will be cancelled.
