Change of name after marriage: documents and instances

It is quite common that in our democratic times the name change is not very difficult. However, the existing normative acts that regulate this process make it a rather troublesome procedure, and in some cases, simply impossible. These difficulties are associated with the fulfillment of certain conditions about which many people who want this "life change" simply do not know and do not imagine with what difficulties they will be confronted by a change of name after the marriage. The documents required for such a procedure must also be prepared irreproachably. With a list of necessary, you can see at any passport office.

As a rule, you need:

- Russian passport;

- application (you should fill it carefully);

- document confirming the fact of payment of state duty;

- certificate of marriage ;

- 4 photos.

And now, when you know with what documents it is necessary to appear at the passport office, it's time to recall some of the circumstances that are not always taken into account, which involves changing the name after the marriage. Documents, even impeccably prepared, can not mean anything, if you do not take into account, for example, the moment that, according to the current legislation, spouses are given one common for both surnames at the time of marriage , or it is left to each of its pre-marital. Moreover, the law also stipulates that a common surname can not consist of more than two names (in the event that the spouses decide to switch to a double one).

Thus, the change of name after marriage already faces one obstacle, which is that a woman who wants to change her surname into a double one can not do this. The law presupposes exceptions, but it does not describe the circumstances of these exceptions. Here comes the situation: you need a change of name after marriage, documents like everything are properly decorated, and by law, you can not change. Therefore, come up with good reasons, write a statement and follow with a confident view of the registry office to convince the staff of this very serious institution that you are a national artist without five minutes. As practice shows, representatives of art-beau monde willingly go to meet with such procedures.

Circumstances can also develop in such a way that the decision to change the surname is taken after you married, but the husband's surname was not taken, but decided to do it just now. Such actions are also spelled out in the law as an act of changing the name. Go to the registry office and you will be explained in detail what is the change of name after marriage, the documents that need to be presented, what actions to take. Legislation allocates a 30-day period for this procedure. This period can be increased if it is required to make inquiries to other places to find out or confirm any information. The main subject of the registrar's office in such circumstances is only the change of name. After marriage, your passport contains your last name before you marry, so changing it will entail a change of a number of documents that may be relevant to you and which are also written out before the marriage. For example, in the registry office you will be changed by the entry in the act, then you will be issued a passport in the relevant subdivision of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and actually everything. However, you have a lot of other documents on hand, which also require a change, so as not to create problems in using them. It is important to know which body should be contacted in order to change a particular document.

The medical policy changes in the issuing insurance company on the basis of your application and a new passport and a copy of the marriage certificate.

The pension card can be replaced in the personnel department at the place of your work, from where you retired.

The taxpayer will be reformed without special red tape at the tax inspectorate when the old TIN is presented.

To make the necessary changes to the work and medical book you are required at the place of work or at the place of placement for medical records in the clinic.

The driver's license is changed to the MREO of the place of residence of the available one.

Bank cards change in the relevant banking institutions or in the place of work.

There are also such documents in which the change of name is not made at all, it is: diplomas of education, certificates, certificates and other documents that are awarded for achieving any statutory statuses. For example, the certificate "Miss World" can not be rewritten to a different surname, no matter how sonorous and iconic it was.

However, lawyers do not insist on changing all documents, in their opinion, it is enough to do this for the most important, most important and used in everyday life.
