Incorrect details on naturalization certificate

I've recently got naturalization certificate and attended oath ceremony. However there is a small correction on the certificate.

My current name :abcd xyz (first name second name)
Name at birth :abcd( I had only first name earlier, later added second name)


But in the certificate' Name at birth' is left has blank.

Do I have it get it corrected or it that fine to ignore it and apply for passport ?

If I have to get it corrected can I Apply for British Passport 1st then get the certificate corrected?

Any advice on this is much appreciated


Kind Regards,
Surya

Well can be left blank or you can get this corrected doesnt matter. they would/will add this info to the observation page of your passport anyways.

Many thanks,

Decided to go ahead without correction so my concern is

1. If they’ve put the observation as name at birth on certificate is blank but I’ve been known as abcd in the past – will this going to be any problem in future? Because this will be mismatch when compared to Naturalization certificate and Passport?

2. Can anyone please advise any way I can contact ukba. I tried to contact using email ‘FurtherNationalityEnquiries@ukba.gsi.gov.uk’ & ukbanationalityenquiries@ukba.gsi.gov.uk. And on 08450105200 but no luck

Hi tehmina, I'm in the same situation as you also. Incorrect spelling for name at birth. Posted certificate with cover letter and evidence on 26th feb 2013, but no response at yet. Not sure why its taking so long its been around 4 weeks and can't get through to anyone on the phone number that was on the back of approval letter. Will keep you updated, I hope they get corrected soon.

Hi all

Did you have to pay for a fee for the correction? I read the guidance but it is not clear whether I have to pay £88.

Thanks
