Quick Answer

To change your name legally in Bhiwani, you follow three steps. A notarised affidavit on stamp paper, a public notice in one Hindi and one English newspaper, and a Gazette notification. Bhiwani is also where the Board of School Education Haryana sits, so every Haryana school certificate in the state is corrected from this town.

The Whole State Comes Here For This

Every Haryana School Certificate Is Corrected In This Town

The Board of School Education Haryana has its headquarters at Adhyapak Bhawan on Hansi Road in Bhiwani. It came into existence in 1969 under Haryana Act No. 11 of 1969, conducted its first matriculation examination in 1970, and moved here from Chandigarh in January 1981. Every matric and senior secondary certificate issued by the state board, for a student anywhere in Haryana, belongs to that office. So a name correction in a Haryana school certificate is a Bhiwani matter whether the school was in Gurugram, Sirsa or Panchkula.

The year on your certificate decides more than people realise. If it is from before 1970, it was not issued by this board at all, because the board's first examination was that year and Haryana students sat Punjab examinations before it. Such a certificate is corrected by a Punjab authority, and no amount of applying at Bhiwani will move it. Certificates from between 1969 and January 1981 came from a board headquartered at Chandigarh rather than here. The 10+2 pattern began in 1987, so a senior secondary certificate cannot predate that, and the Haryana Open School stream started in 1994 and is a separate record again.

Send us the year and the stream, not just the certificate: tell us the examination year, whether it was matric, senior secondary or Open School, and the roll number if it is legible. Those three details decide which authority holds your record and whether Bhiwani is even the right address, and getting that wrong wastes months.
Central Gazette

The Central Gazette Process for a Name Change in Bhiwani

This is the step that has to come first if a school certificate is involved.

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 Bhiwani.

Publish in Hindi and English Newspapers

One Hindi daily and one English daily, carrying the same old name, new name, address and affidavit date.

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.

Step 1 in Detail

What Your Name Change Affidavit Must Contain

Your old name exactly as printed on your existing documents
Your new name, spelt exactly as you want it recorded forever
Your house number, mohalla or village, and tehsil exactly as on your proof
Your name exactly as printed on the matric certificate, with the year
A declaration that both names belong to the same person
Your signature, two witness signatures, and the notary stamp with date
Match the matric certificate letter for letter: if the certificate says Anita Devi and your Aadhaar says Anita, the affidavit must carry both forms. A board clerk compares the affidavit against the certificate on file, not against what you believe your name to be, and any gap between them sends the application back.
Step 2 in Detail

The Hindi and English Newspaper Rules

Two papers are needed, one Hindi and one English, not just one
The notice must repeat the same old name, new name and address as the affidavit
It must mention the date on which the affidavit was made
The advertisement usually appears in the classified section
Keep spare original cuttings, because the board will retain a set
Even one letter spelt differently can get your whole file returned
Cost of this step: two budget dailies cost about Rs 1,000 to Rs 1,500 together, while premium national papers can cost Rs 2,500 to Rs 5,000. Keep at least two sets of cuttings, since the board, the passport office and an employer may each want their own.
Step 3 in Detail

What Goes Into Your Gazette File

The signed Gazette application form in the prescribed proforma
The original notarised affidavit
Original cuttings of both newspaper advertisements
A request letter addressed to the publishing authority
Identity proof, two photographs and the soft copy of the notice
The fee receipt, paid in the applicant's own name
Government fee and time: Rs 1,100 for an adult and Rs 1,700 for a minor for the Central Gazette. Publication usually takes 4 to 6 weeks after a complete file reaches the department, and the e-Gazette copy carries the same legal weight as the printed one, which matters because the board will accept a downloaded copy.
Why This One Paper Matters Most

The Matric Certificate Is What Everything Else Is Measured Against

Ask a passport office, an employer or a university what proves your name and date of birth and you will usually be pointed at the matriculation certificate. It is treated as the anchor document because it was created when you were fourteen or fifteen, long before you had any reason to alter anything. Everything issued afterwards is checked against it rather than the other way round. That is exactly why a name difference on it causes so much trouble, and why fixing it is worth doing properly.

It also sets the order of work. Publish the Gazette first, then apply to the board with the full set, then update Aadhaar, PAN, bank and the rest. Almost everyone does it backwards, updating Aadhaar because it is easy and discovering later that the board wanted a Gazette they never published. And note the difference between two situations that look alike. If the board printed your name wrongly at the time, that is a correction request supported by school records. If your name has genuinely changed since, through marriage, divorce or choice, that is a Gazette matter first and a board application second. Only one of those needs us.

If you have a deadline, say so in the first message: a job offer, an admission or a visa appointment with a date attached changes what we recommend. Board applications are slowest around examination and result seasons, and we would rather tell you honestly that a timeline is tight than take your money and let you find out.
Compare the Two Routes

Haryana Gazette or Central Gazette for Bhiwani?

Both are valid. Here is the honest difference, so you pick the right one the first time.

PointHaryana GazetteCentral Gazette of India
Published byPrinting and Stationery Department, Haryana, at Sector 18, ChandigarhDepartment of Publication, Civil Lines, Delhi
Distance from BhiwaniAbout 250 kilometres to ChandigarhAbout 125 kilometres to Delhi, filed by post
Haryana state board certificateGenerally acceptable to the state boardAccepted by the board and by every other authority too
A pre 1970 Punjab board certificateNo effect on a Punjab recordAccepted in Punjab as well
Higher studies or a job in another stateCarries little weight outside HaryanaThe proof other states and employers accept
Passport and going abroadUsually not accepted for attestationThe proof passport offices and embassies look for
Central Government or defence service recordsMeant for state department recordsThe route central offices work with
Government feeAs set by the state, non-refundableRs 1,100 adult, Rs 1,700 minor
Our honest advice for Bhiwani: if the only record you are fixing is a Haryana state board certificate and you intend to stay within the state, the Haryana Gazette will usually do. But a matric certificate follows you everywhere, and the moment it has to be read by a passport office, a university in another state or an employer outside Haryana, the Central Gazette is the one that ends the conversation. Take it once. The state level detail is on our Haryana name change guide, and the full comparison is in our name change agent in India guide.
Two Districts Later

This District Came From Hisar, and Charkhi Dadri Left in 2016

Bhiwani district was carved out of Hisar district in 1972, and in 2016 Charkhi Dadri was carved out of Bhiwani in turn. So depending on the year and the village, a family here can hold papers naming Hisar, Bhiwani or Charkhi Dadri, all correct for their own period. The Charkhi Dadri change is recent enough that most adults from that side have every document naming Bhiwani and only the newest ones naming Charkhi Dadri.

This sits on top of the school board layers, which is where files from this belt get complicated. A person from the Dadri side can hold a matric certificate naming Bhiwani district, a caste certificate naming Charkhi Dadri, and an old family paper naming Hisar. The affidavit records each document, its authority, the year and the district exactly as printed, then states that the village and the person are unchanged. Our Hisar page covers the parent district and the separate question of university degrees, which is a different institution and a different process from the school board here.

If your village is in the Charkhi Dadri side, say so at the start: we word the affidavit to name both district forms with the year of the change, rather than writing one over the other. It costs nothing to include and it prevents a verifier reading two districts as two places.
Save Your Money

Not Every Case in Bhiwani Needs a Gazette

Many agents sell a Gazette for every case. That is not honest. A name the board printed wrongly at the time, a certificate from before 1970 that belongs to a Punjab authority, or a paper naming Hisar or Charkhi Dadri instead of Bhiwani is not a name change problem. A printing error is a correction request to the board supported by school records, and no Gazette will alter what an earlier authority wrote.

A name error in a birth certificate is corrected by the Registrar through the Municipal Council Bhiwani, or the municipal committee or gram panchayat where the birth was registered. Caste, income, residence and domicile certificates are corrected by the issuing authority at the tehsil or SDM office, and land record entries through the revenue side and the patwari. If an office refuses in writing, the appeal runs upward through the Deputy Commissioner, which our Karnal page sets out. A Gazette is for a full legal name change, and for cases where the same difference repeats across several records.

One Platform, Start to Finish

Your Complete Name Change Journey in Bhiwani, Handled by NameChangeAgent

Most people think the Gazette is the finish line. It is the middle. Here is the whole journey, and where we stand beside you at each stage.

NameChangeAgent is a platform built for exactly this one job, done properly, in your own town. We are based in Delhi and we work with families across Bhiwani district entirely online, and with people from all over Haryana whose school certificate happens to be held here. You send photographs of what you have on WhatsApp. We read them, tell you honestly which route your case needs, and then carry it through. Nobody has to travel to Hansi Road to find out what the first step is.

What makes a Bhiwani file different is what you have already read on this page. A state school board whose records go back to 1970 and whose headquarters were in Chandigarh until 1981, so the year on your certificate decides which authority holds it. A pre 1970 certificate that belongs to Punjab and not to this board at all. A matric certificate that every other document is measured against. A district that came from Hisar and lost Charkhi Dadri in 2016. A generic online form asks about none of that, and an agent who has never worked a board file will publish a Gazette and hand it over without mentioning that the board stage has barely begun. We ask before a single word is drafted, because a file worded correctly the first time does not come back.

Free Consultation on Your Bhiwani Case

Send your certificate and papers on WhatsApp. We tell you which authority holds your record, which route applies and the honest cost. No charge and no obligation.

Affidavit Drafted and Notarised

We draft it carrying your name exactly as the matric certificate prints it, with the examination year, and every district form with its own year. Usually ready in one to two days.

Hindi and English Notices Placed

We place both advertisements with wording identical to the affidavit, and collect spare original cuttings because the board keeps a set.

Gazette Filed and Followed Up

The complete file goes to the publishing authority, and we track it through to publication rather than leaving you to chase it.

Gazette Copy Delivered to You

You receive the published notification, which is exactly what the board will ask to see before it will act on your record.

Every Document Updated Afterwards

The board record, then Aadhaar, PAN, passport, bank, provident fund and property. Most agents stop before this stage, and this is the stage that actually matters.

One person, one number, all the way through: the same team member who reads your first WhatsApp message stays with your file until the last document is updated, in Hindi, Haryanvi or English. Call 9540005002 or message 9540005064 to start.

Name Change in Bhiwani, Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to the questions we hear most often.

How do I change my name legally in Bhiwani?
In three steps. A notarised affidavit on stamp paper, a public notice in one Hindi and one English newspaper, and a Gazette notification. We handle all three for you, fully online.
Where is the Haryana school board and does my certificate come under it?
The Board of School Education Haryana has its headquarters at Adhyapak Bhawan, Hansi Road, Bhiwani. Every matric and senior secondary certificate it issued, for a student anywhere in Haryana, is corrected from there.
My matric certificate is from before 1970, who corrects it?
A Punjab authority. The board came into existence in 1969 and held its first matriculation examination in 1970, so Haryana students sat Punjab examinations before that. Applying at Bhiwani for such a certificate will not move it.
My certificate is from the 1970s, was the board in Bhiwani then?
No. The board was headquartered at Chandigarh and moved to Bhiwani in January 1981, so a certificate from the 1970s came from the Chandigarh headquarters. The board is still the right authority today.
What if my certificate is from Haryana Open School?
Haryana Open School was established in 1994 and is a separate stream with its own record. Tell us the stream along with the examination year, because it changes where the application goes.
Do I need a Gazette to correct a printing mistake by the board?
No. If the board printed the name wrongly at the time, that is a correction request supported by school records. A Gazette is needed when your name has genuinely changed since, through marriage, divorce or choice.
In what order should I do the Gazette, the board and Aadhaar?
Gazette first, then the board application with the full set, then Aadhaar, PAN, bank and the rest. Updating Aadhaar first is the most common reason a file has to be started again.
My village is in Charkhi Dadri now, what changed?
Charkhi Dadri was carved out of Bhiwani in 2016, and Bhiwani itself was carved out of Hisar in 1972. All three district names are correct for their own period and the affidavit records each with its year.
How much does a name change cost in Bhiwani?
The Central Gazette Government fee is Rs 1,100 for an adult and Rs 1,700 for a minor. The Haryana Gazette fee is separate and non-refundable, board fees are separate again, and newspaper and affidavit charges are extra. Our complete service starts at Rs 3,999.
Will the Gazette update my certificate and Aadhaar automatically?
No. The Gazette is the proof of the change. You then apply to the board and to each authority separately, and every one has its own process. We guide you through all of them after publication.
