To change your name legally in Arunachal Pradesh, you prepare an affidavit sworn before a Notary Public or an Executive or Judicial Magistrate, publish a notice in a local newspaper, and then take it to a Gazette. The state route goes through Government approval and is printed by the Directorate of Printing and Stationery at Naharlagun. The Central Gazette is filed in Delhi and is accepted across India. We handle every step online, so no district is too far.
How the Name Change Process Works in Arunachal Pradesh
Arunachal Pradesh does not follow the same pattern as most other states, and that is why general guides confuse people here. Your affidavit is sworn before a Notary Public in the Itanagar Capital Region, or before an Executive or Judicial Magistrate in your district headquarters, such as Aalo in West Siang. After the newspaper notice, the state route needs Government approval before the notice is printed in the Arunachal Pradesh Gazette, which is published by the Directorate of Printing and Stationery at Naharlagun.
English is the official language of this state, so the local notice usually appears in an English daily such as The Arunachal Times rather than a regional language paper. We know these differences and prepare your file to match them, instead of using a format meant for another state.
The Central Gazette Process for a Name Change in Arunachal Pradesh
This is the route accepted everywhere in India and abroad. Here is exactly what happens at each step.
Prepare and Notarise the Affidavit
A sworn declaration on non-judicial stamp paper, attested by a Notary Public or an Executive or Judicial Magistrate in your district.
Publish the Newspaper Notice
A public notice in a local English daily such as The Arunachal Times, along with a second widely circulated paper as required.
File With the Department of Publication
The complete file goes to the Controller of Publications, Civil Lines, Delhi, and your notice appears in Part IV of the Gazette of India.

What Goes Into Your Gazette File
Arunachal Pradesh State Gazette or Central Gazette of India?
Both are valid. Here is the honest difference, so you pick the right one the first time.
| Point | Arunachal Pradesh State Gazette | Central Gazette of India |
|---|---|---|
| Published by | Directorate of Printing and Stationery, Naharlagun | Department of Publication, Civil Lines, Delhi |
| Extra step | Government approval is needed before the notice is printed | No departmental approval, the file is submitted directly |
| Where it is accepted | Mainly within Arunachal Pradesh | Every state, and by all Government and private bodies in India |
| If you study or work outside the state | Often questioned outside Arunachal | Accepted in Assam, Delhi, Bengaluru and everywhere else |
| Government employees | Recorded through your department, with the prescribed deed | Accepted with the prescribed deed for service records |
| Travel needed | Papers move through Itanagar and Naharlagun | Filed by post, so your district does not matter |
| Government fee | As set by the state department | Rs 1,100 adult, Rs 1,700 minor, through BharatKosh |
| Digital copy | Published on the state printing department website | Downloadable e-Gazette, same legal weight |
From Tawang to Anini, Done Without Travelling
In many parts of Arunachal, reaching a district headquarters is a half day journey, and reaching Itanagar or Naharlagun can take a day or more. Add a rejected document and it becomes two trips. That is the real cost of a name change here, and it is the part nobody talks about.
Our service removes it completely. You send your documents on WhatsApp, we draft the affidavit, arrange the attestation and the newspaper notice, file the Gazette and courier the published copy back to you. Whether you are in Tawang, Khonsa, Daporijo, Roing or Anini, the process runs the same way.
Not Every Case in Arunachal Needs a Gazette
Many agents sell a Gazette for every case. That is not honest. A small spelling mistake in your name is usually fixed with an attested affidavit and your existing proof at each authority. A name error in a birth certificate is corrected by the Registrar of Births and Deaths through your municipal or district office, not by Gazette.
Certificates issued by the district administration, such as a Scheduled Tribe, income or residence certificate, are corrected through the issuing authority. A Gazette is for a full legal name change, for adding a clan title, after marriage, after divorce or by personal choice. We check your case first and tell you which route you actually need.
