Overview: Name Change After Marriage
Changing your name after marriage is a significant step in your personal and legal journey. While a marriage certificate is the primary proof of your union, many government institutions and private entities like Passports, Banks, and Insurance Companies require a more formal legal record to update your surname.
Our service simplifies this process by handling all the legal drafting, newspaper publications, and the final Karnataka State Gazette notification, ensuring your new identity is legally recognized everywhere.

Official Gazette Notification
The Gazette of Karnataka is the official government publication where your name change is recorded permanently. Once published, it becomes the ultimate legal proof that can be used to update any document, including Passports, PAN cards, and property records.
Why is Gazette Mandatory?
Major surname changes post-marriage often trigger scrutiny at Passport offices and Banks. A Gazette notification is the only document that carries the authority of the State Government, making it indisputable.
