HOW DO I DO A SURNAME CHANGE ON AN INDIAN PASSPORT?

         Question:

Hi, My 12 year old Indian born needs surname change in his Indian passport.

Could you please guide me with the newspaper ads and the time taken for this process?

Answer: 

The Indian consulates should provide information about the Indian laws that govern name changes. For the US, in Texas- the family law courts handle this and once an order is given, the Indian consulate will take this order to do a name change on the passport.
