Start Your Name Change in Tinsukia
Fill this quick form and our team will call you back with the process, documents and cost.
To change your name legally in Tinsukia, you follow three steps. A notarised affidavit on stamp paper, a public notice in two newspapers, one Assamese and one English, and then a Gazette notification. The Assam Gazette press is at Bamunimaidam in Guwahati, about 480 kilometres away, while the Central Gazette is filed in Delhi and accepted across India. We handle all three steps online for you.
If You Run a Firm, Your Name Sits on a Dozen Documents
Tinsukia is the commercial hub of Assam, and a very large share of families here run a shop, an agency or a trading firm. That changes what a name change means for you. Your name is not only on an Aadhaar, it is on the GST registration, the trade licence, the firm's bank account, the import export code, the PAN linked to the business, and every invoice you have raised.
If those do not agree, the trouble shows up at the worst time, when a GST amendment is filed, when a loan or limit is renewed, or when a tender needs matching documents. A Gazette notification is what lets you correct all of them from one proof. We handle the Gazette, then help you take it to each authority in the right order.
The Central Gazette Process for a Name Change in Tinsukia
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 Tinsukia.
Publish in Assamese and English Newspapers
One Assamese daily and one English daily such as The Assam Tribune, 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.

Working at Digboi, Margherita or the Railways?
This district carries an unusual concentration of public sector employment. The refinery at Digboi, commissioned in 1901, is the oldest operating refinery in Asia and works as the Assam Oil Division of Indian Oil. Coal India runs major operations around Margherita and Ledo, the coalfields here have been worked since the 1880s, and the railways have been part of Tinsukia since the Dibru Sadiya line opened in 1882.
If you are in Government or public sector service, the name change has to be entered in the service book. That means a name change deed in the format prescribed under the Ministry of Home Affairs office memorandum of 1987, submitted along with the Gazette notification. A Gazette on its own, without that deed, is usually returned by the establishment section. For central records, the Central Gazette is what is expected. We prepare both together.
Eighty Four Kilometres From Another State
Tinsukia sits at the far eastern corner of Assam, only about eighty four kilometres from the Arunachal Pradesh border. Families cross regularly for work, trade and study, and people from the eastern Arunachal districts come here for hospitals, markets and the railway station.
A state Gazette from Assam is used mainly inside Assam, just as an Arunachal Pradesh Gazette is used mainly there. If your work, business or family sits across that border, or anywhere else outside the state, the Central Gazette is the document that travels with you.
Not Every Case in Tinsukia 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 through the Tinsukia municipal office, not by Gazette.
Certificates issued by the district administration, such as a caste, income or residence certificate, are corrected through the issuing authority at the Deputy Commissioner's office, and land entries through the revenue side. A Gazette is for a full legal name change, after marriage, after divorce, for numerology or by personal choice.
