That’s where Patent24x7 steps in — offering expert legal help, step-by-step guidance, and professional support to make your name change stress-free and legally valid.
🔍 Common Reasons Why People Change Their Names
Here’s why thousands of Indians legally change their names every year:
💍 After Marriage or Divorce
✍️ Correcting Spelling Errors
🕉️ Religious or Gender Identity Change
🌌 Personal or Astrological Beliefs
👨👩👧 Adoption or Legal Guardianship
Whatever your reason, it’s crucial that the change is legally documented to reflect across your Aadhaar, PAN card, Passport, and more.
📃 The Legal Name Change Process – Step-by-Step in India
Patent24x7 makes sure you get it right, every step of the way:
1. Draft a Name Change Affidavit
A legal affidavit is created on non-judicial stamp paper, notarized by a licensed advocate. It includes:
Your current and new name
Reason for the name change
Your permanent address & basic personal details
2. Newspaper Publication
Next, you must publish your name change in two newspapers:
🗞️ One in English
📰 One in your regional language
This public notice acts as an official declaration.
3. Gazette Publication
Finally, submit your documents to get your name published in the Official Gazette of India, which legalizes your name change nationwide.
Documents include:
Affidavit
Newspaper ads
ID proofs
Passport-sized photos
Completed Gazette form
