The RTO issues driving licences through the Parivahan system. Here's how name corrections and changes work.
Regional Transport Offices (RTOs), through the national Parivahan / Sarathi system, issue and manage driving licences. A licence name that differs from your Aadhaar or PAN can cause trouble at verification, renewal, or when the licence is used as ID.
A minor correction may be handled directly by the RTO with an existing document. A genuine name change β after marriage, or a full change β usually needs recognised proof such as a Gujarat Gazette, which you then use for the licence update.
The RTO decides the licence update under its own rules. We prepare the supporting documentation and guide the sequence.
We help establish one correct name and prepare the proof for the RTO update. See our spelling correction and marriage name change services, and the driving-licence problem page.
Tell us your situation and we'll guide you on the right documentation β including whether a Gazette is even needed.
