Accession Proclamation

Although His Majesty King Charles III automatically became the Sovereign on the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, a formal Proclamation is made in London of the beginning of the new King's reign. Further Proclamations are then made in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, as well as the Crown Dependencies (Isle of Man), the Commonwealth Countries, and the Overseas Territories. Below is a copy of the Proclamation made in London which is available to view on the Privy Council website https://privycouncil.independent.gov.uk/, along with the Proclamation made in the Isle of Man.
