A domicile certificate proves your state of residence for admissions and jobs. Here's how a name difference on it is handled.
A domicile (or residence) certificate, issued by a revenue or competent authority, proves that you are a resident of the state β commonly needed for admissions, government jobs and certain benefits. Its name should match your identity and academic records.
A name difference is corrected by the issuing authority under its own procedure, with supporting identity documents. Where the underlying cause is a genuine name change, a Gujarat Gazette can serve as recognised supporting proof to align the name.
Where a genuine name change underlies it, we prepare the Gazette and documentation as supporting proof and explain what the issuing authority requires. See our spelling correction and marriage name change services; the issuing authority decides the certificate under its own rules.
Tell us your situation and we'll guide you on the right documentation β including whether a Gazette is even needed.
