Tier 1 Visa: Change of name to married Name

Post by bbuster » Wed May 12, 2010 4:14 pm

Hey all,

I've recently gotten married and want to change my passport into my married name.

Does anyone know the process of transferring a Tier 1 visa over to my new passport (with my new name?).

I can't find any information on it.

Thanks.

If you are in the UK, see Transferring your visa to a new passport.

If outside, then contact local BHC.

You'll probably need to provide evidence of name change (e.g.- marriage certificate), so do check.

regards
