This Bride’s Name Change Kit is for a newly married individual. A marriage license usually qualifies as a legal name change and you will not have to go to court or get an additional official decree. Nevertheless, it is important that you change your name on other documents such as your social security card, driver’s license, passport and any ongoing legal contracts. This kit contains helpful links to effect these changes, letters notifying companies, organizations and agencies of your name change and an Amendment to Contract form. This kit also includes a handy checklist to ensure you don’t miss anything.

Among others, this Name Change Kit contains helpful information and links to the following:
  • Social Security Administration to change your name on your social security card;
  • Department of Motor Vehicles to change your driver’s license and vehicle title and registration;
  • U.S. Department of State to change an existing passport;
  • Internal Revenue Service change of address form;
  • Federal Election Commission to change your voter registration records.

Frequently Asked Questions

To change your name after marriage, you typically need your marriage certificate, a government-issued ID, and any forms required by the agencies you are notifying, such as the Social Security Administration or the Department of Motor Vehicles.

The time it takes to change your name can vary depending on the agency and the state. Generally, updating your name on your social security card can be done quickly, while changing your name on a passport may take several weeks.

In most cases, a marriage certificate is required to change your name legally after marriage. However, if you are seeking a name change for other reasons, you may need to go through a court process.

It's perfectly acceptable to keep your maiden name after marriage. You are not legally required to change your name, and many individuals choose to retain their original name for personal or professional reasons.

This Name Change Kit is specifically designed for use in Colorado. While some information may be relevant in other states, it is important to check the specific laws and requirements for name changes in your state.
