The London Gazette

The London Gazette is the Official Newspaper of Record for the United Kingdom, issued on working days. Despite the title, it’s not like most newspapers as its content consists of legal and official announcements from HM Government, the Armed Forces, local authorities, the Established Churches, companies and private citizens.

It was founded in 1665 as the Oxford Gazette – King Charles II having shifted his court there temporarily to escape the Great Plague in London – and took on its present title a few months later. It’s published by TSO on behalf of Her Majesty’s Stationery Office.

Besides being the Official Newspaper of Record for the UK, it fills the same function for England & Wales; The Edinburgh Gazette and The Belfast Gazette perform the same role for Scotland and Northern Ireland respectively.
