Quick Answer

To change your name legally in Guntur, you follow three steps. A notarised affidavit on stamp paper, a public notice in two newspapers, one Telugu such as Eenadu or Sakshi and one English, and then a Gazette notification. The Andhra Pradesh Gazette office is in Vijayawada, about 35 kilometres away, while the Central Gazette is filed in Delhi and accepted across India and abroad. We handle all three steps online.

Important for Guntur Students

Going Abroad or Facing a Marksheet Mismatch? Choose the Central Gazette

Guntur is one of the biggest education centres in Andhra Pradesh, with Acharya Nagarjuna University, three medical colleges and a long list of engineering and degree colleges. Every year students here find that the name on their marksheet does not match their Aadhaar or passport, and it is caught at the worst moment, during NEET counselling, admission verification or a visa interview.

Here is the point that matters for Guntur families. If your child plans to study or work abroad, a state Gazette is not the right proof. Foreign universities, embassies and attestation offices look for the Central Gazette of India. Doing the state route now and the Central route later means paying and waiting twice. Our name change agent in India guide explains both routes with a rupee by rupee breakdown.

For traders and exporters: Guntur runs Asia's largest chilli market, and cotton and tobacco exports go out of here every day. If your name differs across your passport, bank, GST and export documents, shipments and payments get held up. The Central Gazette is the proof that keeps all of them aligned.
Central Gazette

The Central Gazette Process for a Name Change in Guntur

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 witnesses and attested by a Notary Public or First Class Magistrate in Guntur.

Publish in Telugu and English Newspapers

One Telugu daily such as Eenadu, Sakshi or Andhra Jyothi, 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.

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 father's or husband's name and your Guntur address
The reason, such as marriage, divorce, numerology or personal choice
A declaration that both names belong to the same person
Your signature, witness signatures, and the notary stamp with date
Cost of this step: stamp paper is usually Rs 20 to Rs 100 and notary charges about Rs 200 to Rs 500. Students should make sure the spelling matches the 10th marksheet exactly, since that is the document boards and universities treat as the base record.
Step 2 in Detail

The Telugu and English Newspaper Rules

Two papers are needed, one Telugu 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 the original cuttings showing the paper name and the date
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. A smaller Telugu daily keeps the total low without affecting validity.
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 Controller of Publications
Identity proof, two photographs and the soft copy of the notice
The BharatKosh 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, paid online through BharatKosh. Publication usually takes 4 to 6 weeks after a complete file reaches the department. Keep extra copies, since universities and embassies often ask for the Gazette along with attested marksheets.
Compare the Two Routes

Andhra Pradesh State Gazette or Central Gazette for Guntur?

Both are legal. Here is the honest difference, so you choose the right one the first time.

Our honest advice for Guntur: if the name change is only for state department records, the local route is fine. For a student going abroad, an exporter, a central Government job or a passport, choose the Central Gazette and finish it once. See the state level detail on our Andhra Pradesh name change page.
Capital Region Staff

Working in a Government Office Near Amaravati? Read This First

Guntur sits inside the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region, only about 25 to 35 kilometres from Amaravati, so a large number of families here have someone in state Government service, the revenue department, the railways or a state corporation.

Government employees must submit a name change deed in the format prescribed under the Ministry of Home Affairs office memorandum of 1987, so the change is entered in the service book. A Gazette notification on its own, without that deed in the correct format, is often returned by the establishment section. We prepare the deed along with your Gazette file.

Tip for Government staff: update your service record, PF and pension papers as soon as the Gazette is published. A mismatch found at retirement is far harder to fix than one corrected today.
Save Your Money

Not Every Case in Guntur 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 a notarised affidavit and your existing proof at each authority. A name error in a birth certificate is corrected by the Registrar at the Guntur Municipal Corporation, not by Gazette.

State certificates such as income, caste, residence or domicile are corrected through the revenue department, commonly at a MeeSeva centre. A Gazette is for a full legal name change, after marriage, after divorce, for numerology or by personal choice. We check your case first and tell you which route you actually need.
