Start Your Name Change in Bhagalpur
Fill this quick form and our team will call you back with the process, documents and cost.
To change your name legally in Bhagalpur, you follow three steps. A notarised affidavit on stamp paper, a public notice in two newspapers, one Hindi and one English, and then a Gazette notification. The Bihar Gazette is printed at Gulzarbagh in Patna, about 200 kilometres away, while the Central Gazette is filed in Delhi and accepted across India. We handle all three steps online for you.
Weavers and Exporters, Your Name Sits on More Papers Than You Think
Bhagalpur has produced Tussar silk for generations, and in this city a name is rarely on identity documents alone. For a weaving family it is on the artisan or handloom card, the cooperative society register, the loan or scheme application and the bank account. For a trader or exporter it is also on the GST registration, the import export code and every invoice raised.
When those do not agree, the trouble arrives at the worst moment, when a scheme benefit is verified, when a loan is renewed, or when an export payment is being cleared. A Gazette notification is the one proof that lets you correct all of them from a single document. We handle the Gazette, then guide you through each authority in the right order.
The Central Gazette Process for a Name Change in Bhagalpur
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, signed with two witnesses and attested by a Notary Public or First Class Magistrate in Bhagalpur.
Publish in Hindi and English Newspapers
One Hindi daily such as Hindustan, Dainik Jagran or Prabhat Khabar, and one English daily, as the required public notice.
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.

TMBU, IIIT Bhagalpur and Sabour Agricultural University
After Patna, this is the only district in Bihar with three major higher education institutions. Tilka Manjhi Bhagalpur University, set up in 1960, covers colleges across Bhagalpur and Banka. Bihar Agricultural University at Sabour traces its history back to 1908 and is the oldest agricultural institute in the state. Alongside them sits the Indian Institute of Information Technology, a centrally funded institute. Add the medical and engineering colleges and this city holds a very large student population.
A name correction on a degree or marksheet is applied for through your college to the university, and central institutes check identity documents closely. The order decides whether it goes through. Correct your Aadhaar first, then your PAN and passport, and apply to the university last with the Gazette copy attached.
Not Every Case in Bhagalpur Needs a Gazette
Many agents sell a Gazette for every case. That is not honest. A small spelling mistake is usually fixed with a notarised affidavit and your existing proof at each authority. A name error in a birth certificate is corrected by the Registrar through the Bhagalpur Municipal Corporation, not by Gazette.
Caste, income and residence certificates are corrected through the issuing authority at the block or circle office, and land record entries through the revenue side. A Gazette is for a full legal name change, after marriage, after divorce, for numerology or by personal choice. We check your papers first and tell you which route you actually need.
