There have been calls for the matter to be reported to the police since a photo of the leaflet was shared on social media.
After seeing the posts on social media, a Chichester resident got in touch to say that they had received the leaflet in question.
A spokesman from UKIP head office said: "The material in question was not sanctioned by UKIP Head Office, and as such is not an official communication of the national United Kingdom Independence Party.
”UKIP is investigating the source of this material.”
The regional branch of UKIP has been approached for comment
