Everything is organized to make the process as smooth as possible.

NameChange helps simplify the process for those updating their name after marriage, divorce, or with a court-ordered name change.

While we don’t handle the legal process of obtaining a court order, our kits are built for people who already have their official name change document—whether it's a marriage certificate, divorce decree, or court order.

We only request essential information needed to complete your forms, such as your name, date of birth, address, height, and hair color. Rest assured.

we never collect sensitive personal data like your Social Security number, passport number, driver’s license number, or bank account details.

step 1: Choose the name change kit that best suits your needs — either the Name Change kit or the Print-at-Home option.

Step 2: Fill out a simple form with your basic personal details and select the accounts you’d like to update (banks, credit cards, loyalty programs, etc.). We never ask for sensitive information like your Social Security number, passport number, or account numbers.

Step 3: Our software generates a personalized name change kit based on your information and selected accounts.

Step 4: You'll receive your kit by mail or as a downloadable PDF. It includes the forms you need (Social Security, passport, driver’s license, voter registration, and more), plus step-by-step instructions to walk you through each one.

Step 5: Sign, date, and submit your forms. With our detailed instructions, you’ll be able to complete your name change with confidence.

• Name Change Kit (Physical Kit): We process your order within 1 business day, and shipping typically takes 2–5 business days.
• Print-at-Home Kit (PDF File): You'll receive your digital name change kit by email within 24 hours of purchase.

We offer both digital and physical packages. The digital package provides everything you need online and is available to download and self-print.

No need to worry—you can begin the name change process now, even if you have upcoming travel plans. NameChange will walk you through it step by step.

• You can go ahead and update your name with the Social Security Administration (SSA) and your DMV, but hold off on updating your passport until after you return. Your passport must match the name on your travel booking. Don’t worry—your current passport (in your old/maiden name) stays valid until it expires.
  
• You can start with the SSA, but wait until after your trip to update your passport or REAL ID driver’s license. Again, the name on your ID must match your flight reservation. Your current ID remains valid during this time.
  

With your NameChange kit, you’ll know exactly what to do and when—without risking any travel disruptions.

Yes! If you’ve recently relocated—whether within the same state or to a different one—our name change kit covers both your name and address updates. There’s no need to update your name in your previous state first. You can get a driver’s license in your new name by submitting your current license (even if it’s still in your old name) along with your legal name change document. We’ll guide you through every step based on your new location.

Your legal name change document — whether it’s a marriage certificate, divorce decree, or court order — doesn’t expire. Even if it’s been months or years since your marriage or divorce, you can still update your name. NameChange makes the process straightforward whenever you’re ready.

To change your first name, you must file a name change petition with your local city or county courthouse. Once a judge approves your request, you’ll receive a court order authorizing the change. With that court order in hand, you can then use NameChange to update your name on all your government IDs, records, and personal accounts.
