Kate receives privileges never given to Diana or Princess Anne

The Princess of Wales, Kate, is allowed to issue a Royal Certificate – a privilege never granted to Princess Diana and Princess Anne

The fact that the Princess of Wales was granted a Royal Certificate by King Charles III is a sign that she has recovered from cancer treatment and returned to public duty.

The Royal Certificate is approved by the Monarch and awarded to individuals and companies that regularly provide goods or services to the Royal Family. In addition to Kate, King Charles III continues to have the right to issue Certificates, which he has been allowed to do since he was Crown Prince. He was authorized by his mother, Queen Elizabeth II (who issued a total of 686 certificates during her reign).

When he was Crown Prince, King Charles III issued 159 certificates. However, the late Queen did not allow his wife at the time, Princess Diana, to issue any certificates. Instead, Diana often sends handwritten letters to recognize outstanding contributions. Princess Anne was also not allowed to issue a certificate, although she was arguably the hardest-working member of the royal family.

Queen Camilla has the right to issue certificates under her own name since her husband ascended the throne. The record for the number of certificates issued belongs to the late Queen Elizabeth II, while the late Duke of Edinburgh is quite reserved about this, only awarding 38 certificates during his lifetime.

Currently, only four members of the royal family can issue Certificates: King Charles III, Queen Camilla, Prince of Wales and Princess of Wales.

Units with Royal Certificates must meet the criteria for providing goods or services on a regular basis for a minimum of three years to the King or another member of the royal family. They don’t have to be big, familiar companies like Rolls-Royce or Fortnum & Mason.

In the small town of Ballater, near Balmoral in Scotland, almost every shop, from butchers, bakeries, pharmacies, groceries and wine, proudly displays the Royal Certificate. The same thing also appears in the surrounding area such as Sandringham, Norfolk, where the royal family celebrates Christmas every year.

Companies that have obtained the Royal Certificate are allowed to inscribe the inscription “As specified by…” on their stationery and buildings. For example, when Kate issues a Royal Certificate, the recipient will be allowed to write “On the Appointment of Catherine, Princess of Wales”. This is a sought-after award.

This certificate expires when the royal member who reviews it dies or if the company ceases to operate or changes hands.

The Royal Certificate will be awarded to traders when they meet the required time and submit a written application to the Grand Governor’s Office. The Royal Traders Certification Committee then reviews applications and publishes the list of nominees for Certification in December every year in the Official Gazette of London.

rtification is not only coveted for prestige but also for commercial advantage. Many customers prefer to buy goods from companies that supply the royal family because “if it’s good enough for the royal family, then it’s good enough for them”. Once a year, members of the Association of Royal Certificate Holders hold a party at the Grosvenor House Hotel in Park Lane, London.

However, they are also likely to be deprived of this honor. Among the famous names that have recently lost the Certification is the chocolate maker Cadbury – once the King’s favorite. The company may not have made any mistakes but the fact that they are no longer popular is enough to remove them from the list.
