Name Change on British Passport (From India)

Post by Singhy » Wed Oct 26, 2022 5:39 pm

Dear Mods / Admins

Problem Statement

My son (8 yrs old) and wife (both British passport holders) reside in India whilst I live in UK and visit them every couple of months.

We have decided to make change to our son's name and I wasn't able to get a clear information from gov.uk website on the process to be followed in order to go through this process whilst being in India.

I was hoping that one of you would be kind enough to shed some light on the formalities / documents needed in order to go through the name change process (on british passport) from India?

Hoping to hear back soon.

Best.

If you try inserting your information in this form https://www.gov.uk/changing-passport-information it should guide you on how to apply for a name change in a passport from abroad.
All advice comes from personal research and experience and should not be regarded as professional opinion.
