Name Change After Marriage

To change name after marriage, first obtain a marriage certificate, then prepare and notarize an affidavit. Next, publish the name change after marriage in a local newspaper and apply for a gazette notification. Finally, use the marriage certificate and gazette notification to update your official documents, such as your Aadhaar card, PAN card, passport, and bank accounts.

Name Change in Passport

To change your name in your passport, you must reissue it, which requires submitting the gazette notification and other documents certifying your name change. After making an appointment at the Passport Seva Kendra, have all your documents verified. Your passport will be issued in your new name within a few days.
