If you need to have your letter addressed to a third-party organisation, such as a bank or the local council, you can request this from the Student Hub. Please visit the Student Hub in person or contact the team by email at student.hub@imperial.ac.uk with the full address of the third-party the letter should be addressed to. Once processed by the Student Hub, the new letter with the third party address will be available to you from My Documents within 48 hours.

If you're submitting a paper-copy, it may help to print in colour for the distinctive College brand.

In the unlikely scenario that your document's authenticity is questioned, if you're able to demonstrate the generation of the document in My Imperial on your connected device in front of them (phone/laptop/etc.) then this will also greatly support their understanding.

Current full time students not living in halls of residence, Imperial or other, who need to provide their local Council with proof of their student status in order to be exempt from paying Council Tax should use their Statement of Registration letter.

• If you request from the Student Hub that your Statement letter is addressed to a third-party organisation, such as your bank, for you to print or share securely, please include with your request the name and branch address of the bank where you will be opening the account.
