Reasons why a person changes his last name

Free legal consultation

There are many events in life that result in changes in personal data. Most often, this is due to a change in marital status, but often also with the elimination of psychological discomfort from a funny or offensive surname.

Personal dislike for one’s surname arises as a result of its dissonance, difficult pronunciation, the desire to separate it from other onomastic forms (personal names or nicknames), and for aesthetic reasons.

When registering a marriage, women most often change their maiden name, but sometimes men do this too. There are situations when a woman decided not to change her personal data before the wedding, but after the birth of children she realized that this was necessary for a more complete unity of the family.

The breakdown of family relationships also prompts a change of surname. For many people, this makes it easier to open a new page in life.

The surname of adoptive parents, stepmother, stepfather, and distant relative is taken by children whose father and mother were not involved in raising them for various reasons. More often this is done out of a feeling of deep gratitude for support and help at difficult stages of personality development.

On the contrary, a girl may take her mother’s premarital surname out of dislike for her own father or as a sign of gratitude to her mother, who raised her on her own.

The next factors that encourage you to change personal data are religious and national beliefs. The new surname will emphasize belonging to one or another religious movement or nationality. Having moved to live in the Russian Federation, many people try to Russify their surname for better adaptation to new conditions.

Your case is very typical and has been talked about many times. But it’s really not easy to find information :). They correctly wrote to you that you need to restore the ENTIRE CHAIN: where you changed your last name. 1). A certificate from the Civil Registry Office Archive that “on such and such a date and year a marriage was concluded between. And. as a result of which the surname changed”; 2) Certificate of divorce (that after the divorce you left your husband’s surname). That's all.

By the way, some advice. request several certificates at once if you have to give the original. Notaries do not make copies of them. The price of one certificate a year ago was 50 rubles. You said everything correctly, BUT. For example, a notary made a copy-translation of this certificate for me and an APOSTILLE was placed on this copy-translation (everything happened in Moscow). This document was accepted with a bang by the mayor's office and the Prefecture. Nobody was interested in the original in Russian.

But they attached the translation to the original, but they refused to give me a copy. In general, everything, as always, depends on the particular notary

Process fees

To get a certificate from the registry office about changing your last name, a person will have to pay. Typically, a fee is charged for registration with the said authority and for the issuance of extracts from the registering organization.

The amount of the fee depends on the situation. Let's consider issuing a duplicate of the certificates that interest us. Then you have to pay:

  • 350 rubles - a copy of a standard certificate;
  • 200 rubles - certificate from the registry office.

As we have already said, through Gosuslugi a person will be able to quickly submit a request to correct personal data about himself. Such processes are also paid.

Divorce certificate

Here are a few fees that a person will have to face:

  • 650 rubles - divorce by mutual consent;
  • 350 rubles - unilateral divorce, marriage, change of surname at will.

There is nothing difficult or incomprehensible about this. The main thing to remember is that government fees may change from time to time. Therefore, it is better to clarify the cost of providing the service immediately before submitting the application.

Validity period of the certificate

The validity period of the certificate confirming the change of surname is unlimited. However, if it is ordered at the request of a government agency, it will be confiscated forever. If it becomes necessary to confirm a change of surname, you will have to order the information again and pay the state fee again. Therefore, lawyers advise, if possible, to order not a certificate, but a repeated certificate.

Duplicates of documents are not confiscated. A scanned copy is provided to the authorities that require them. Thus, having paid 350 rubles of state duty, the applicant will have in his archive a document confirming the change of surname.

MFC

How to get a certificate through the MFC?

You can obtain a certificate of change of surname by contacting the MFC. To do this you need:

  • visit the center;
  • fill out an application in the prescribed form;

The time frame for obtaining the document is longer than when visiting the registry office on your own. This is due to interdepartmental interaction between institutions, which takes time.
