Name change after marriage – How to rectify on Civil ID

This news has been read 24196 times!

I’ve changed my passport into my married name then my company changed my civil ID but they made a mistake in my name which is not same as in the passport..I would like to change it but my question is can I do it online or do i have to do it in a different way as my name would be different from my old passport? And they say this would be a problem later in the immigration once I travel.

Name withheld

Answer: The mistake cannot be corrected online and hence you have to visit the residency department of the Directorate-General of Immigration and Passport in your area to effect the necessary correction.
