Q: I am considering changing my name (putting my middle name first). I went to a few Commissioner of Affidavits to get information on the process, but they all said that its a long drawn out process. What i want to know is how can i change my name and what happens after i do. I have a number of certificates that have my current name what would happen to them if i do?
A: It's not really a long drawn out process.
What you need: Birth certificate, new name, proof of address.
Where to go: Civil Lawyer
Length of process: Approximately 2-3 months
Your certificates will remain valid, but everywhere you present them, you'll have to present a copy of the Deed Poll.
Also, to change your name on all official documents, you just need to present the Deed Poll along with your birth certificate and apply for your new documents.
I'm happy to see my past COSTAATT Criminal Law students using my site! :-)

Hi, can you confirm whether it is necessary to do this through a lawyer or can we do it ourselves?
ReplyDeleteIf doing on our own, what government agency/office/ministry/court etc do we go to?
Thanks.
No. A lawyer is required.
DeleteHi.. When i was younger my dad changed my birth name and sign documents to use a different name on my ID an stuff but now I want to change it back to my birth name. How do I go about doing so?
DeleteThank you for the response, this has been on my mind for a while. Would you be able to do this, or where can i go to get this done? Also can you give me an estimated cost to get this done? Lastly, what would happen after marriage, would i have to re-do the process or would the change not affect the change in my last name after marriage?
ReplyDeletePS. I have a strong idea of whose site this is.
Looking forward to your response.
Don't you have my number, Renee? Call me.
DeleteI have a question concerning land. What's the difference between a seed a gift and a deed of comfort? Which of these would be required to build a house on a land without the hassle of a will and the need to get the land surveyed. Someone is building a house on their parents land but wishes to have the comfort of a paper stating that their house wouldn't be jeopardized in the event that the parent dies without a will and the possibility of a relative (step mother) taking control of the property and the person losing their house.
DeleteCertificate of comfort - Given to long term squatters by the government to grant "ownership" in accordance with the State Land (Regularisation Of Tenure) Act 1998
DeleteDeed of gift - a money-less transaction done to give property to another. Most common is probably when parents transfer land to children for no cost
Hello, I would like to find out if it is necessary for me to have a deed poll done in the case where my name was mispelt on my marriage certificate. I am now divorced but have never changed my maiden name on any of my business or other documents/accounts. My passport which bears my maiden name is now expired, do I have to still do the deed poll?
ReplyDeleteIf you don't use you married name, where is the issue here? Or am I not understanding you properly?
DeleteHow can a mother's surname be added to a birth certificate in Trinidad and Tobago?
ReplyDeleteIs it that only your first name is on the birth certificates? That doesn't seem correct to me...
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteIs there any way I can get an inexpensive lawyer or legal aid maybe to assist with changing my daughter's last name? She's 3 & I really want to change her name as soon as possible. I know a deed poll needs to be done, but I really don't have the funds to pay for legal assistance
Legal aid does not help with these unimportant matters.
DeleteSend me an e-mail.
Hi my name was changed to my fathers name and im looking to go back if i can just change my first name to my middle name and middle name to my first name but fo i have to get a deed poll and does it take moths to get?
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteI would like to my name (First Name and Surname) to something completely different. Would the process be the same? Or is there another way one must go about it.
As long as it's not for fraud... but it will be harder, for obvious reasons.
DeleteI want to change my name since I got married recently. I've been looking online for a form, number to call or some kind of explanation on how I could do this. Could you point me in the right direction? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteAs long as you've accepted the fact that you want to carry your husband's name, your name is automatically changed. This is not America, where it has to be officially changed through Social Security.
DeleteYou can start using your "new" name now and when you want to change it at the bank/passport/id card, you just need to carry your marriage certificate.
Hi if can you usend the certificate that church gives you to change your name at ID card office and the license office?. Reason I ask is that my wifeet ID and license expired and we signed up for the marriage certificate ato legal affairs and it is taking very long but I have the certificate from the pastor at church
DeleteMy son is 18 years old and just received in his green card in the USA, all his documents are in our maiden name. The only document that reflects my previous married name is his passport. We have tried on several occasions to change the last name on the passport but unsuccessful. When he was a minor, I presented my divorce decree which states that both he and my daughter carry the maiden name. I presented all immigration documents that also reflect our maiden name and the consulate in Miami would not accept it. I don't see why I have to do a legal name change when legally in the USA and anywhere else in the world his last name is his maiden name. His Green Card, his ID his school records are all in his maiden name.
ReplyDeleteHow can I get his passport changed to match all his other records?
are there any lawyers in south you would recommend?
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely not.
DeleteHi, do I HAVE to change my surname to my married name? Or can I keep my maiden name without a backlash
ReplyDeleteIt will make things harder as a family when names become and issue, but you don't have to change it.

ReplyDeleteThanks...
Not to my knowledge.
DeleteHi what is the procedure in having my married name removed after divorce? I have kept my maiden name... What is the cost and how long would it take?
ReplyDeleteAll you have to do is show your divorce decree absolute wherever you go.
DeleteIf you have lost your Deed Pole where can you acquire a copy?
ReplyDeleteHi, can you legally use your maiden name after marriage as your new middle name and adopt your husband's surname? If so what is the usual process?
ReplyDeleteNo. It can by hyphenated, but not used as your middle name. That requires a deed poll.

ReplyDeleteNo process. Just simple start hyphenating it going forward. You'd need to carry your marriage certificate to have your name changed.

After 20yrs my mom and him got divorced and she reverted back to her maiden name and i was stuck with his surname.

DeleteHi. I got a divorce from my first husband in 2012. I got married again to someone else last year. I have already changed my name in most places using my divorce decree and new Marriage Certificate. Got a new ID card and passport with said documents. I retired early from teaching and receive a pension. I went to Pensions Division at Treasury building with the same documents I used elsewhere to change my name but was told I need to get a deed poll through the court. Why do I need a Deed Poll if I have a divorce decree, a new Marriage Certificate and my name is already changed in my National ID card and Passport. Please help.
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't make sense. Clearly someone is speaking as though they know what they're talking about, but don't.

ReplyDeleteHi, My name is Anna-Lisa but the hyphen was omitted on my birth certificate. I recently corrected the issue with an affidavit. I am now in the process of getting my ID card with my corrected name. However, at the ID card office I was told that I needed to get a deed poll instead of an affidavit to get a new ID card with the name change because I was registered since 2007 and I'm now coming to change it. Is a deed poll really necessary and can a personal affidavit work in this situation? Thank you
ReplyDeleteI cannot tell you what the id card office should accept because that will be their internal policy.
DeleteWhen my daughter was born I put my surname and her fathers together hyphenated as her surname. He left soon after I applied for her birth certificate and her passport reflecting this name.

ReplyDeleteHi there thanks for the progressive thinking and caring in having a site like this, i'm hoping for some clarity in cases of gender recognition where a change of name is done for that purpose, having all appropriate documents in order, what do we in Trinidad and Tobago allow for, i saw the UK allow one to change name on birth certificate
ReplyDeletehttp://www.deedpoll.org.uk/CanABirthCertificateBeChanged.html('Can a birth certificate be changed?',paragraph 7)
"If you have changed your gender and obtained a Gender Recognition Certificate
If you are at least 18 years of age and have gender dysphoria and have been living in your acquired gender for at least two years, you can apply to the Gender Recognition Panel (opens new window) for a Gender Recognition Certificate, which will enable you to obtain a new birth certificate showing your new gender and name. The new birth certificate can be used as documentary evidence of your change of name thus avoiding the need for a Deed Poll."
I really haven't seen this happen here yet, but I'm sure it's possible using this same process.

Deleteello good day,
DeleteI was told by a JP that the laws in Trinidad do not require a child to automatically carry only their father's surname.
Can u clarify this for me, reason being my 11 yr old son has been carrying both my husband's & my surnames with a hyphen (Allen-Noreiga) but now that he had to be registered for SEA the MOE is refusing to use his hyphenated surname.
It's even on his passport but schools are required to use a birth paper in registration which to my knowledge has no surname of the owner on it so they are using the child's father's surname but my son has both our surnames as I stated previously
Some info / advice would be greatly appreciated
My first name was spelt incorrectly on my original birth certificate.
ReplyDeleteHowever, because of affidavits that were done, the correct spelling has always been used and ALL of my personal official documents have the correct spelling.
Is it possible to have the error corrected on my new certificate?
Also, is it legal to use a middle name as a first name?
Good day,
ReplyDeleteI am considering changing the structure of my entire name. That is, dropping the first name & applying my middle name and also changing the surname, not because of marriage and for any fraudulent purpose, I just never liked the surname. Can this type of alteration be done in TT, specifically to a random surname change? Can a person choose any new surname to apply to their name structure and is there another or screening process involved?
Good day,
ReplyDeleteCan you please give me advice on how to remove the father's name from your child's birth paper if he's not interested in being in the child's life please?

DeleteHello goodday. My son is now going to register into primary school , they require the immunization card and birth paper .the fathers name is present on the birth paper and I swore an affidavit to go back to the clinic to have the child used my surname instead since the father is not active in the childs life. I want him to carry my surname from now on and for the rest of his life . Would I require any other necessary documents when applying for a passport and other documents
