Episode Details

Changing your passport name isn’t a click-and-done deal—but it’s totally doable with the right forms and docs. If your passport is under a year old or your name change was recent, mail in Form DS-5504 with your old passport, a new photo, and proof like a marriage certificate or court order. If more than a year has passed, you might use Form DS-82—or go in person with DS-11 if mailing isn’t an option. No clear court docs? You may need Form DS-60, plus two witnesses who know you by both names and three public records showing at least five years of using your new name. It’s paperwork-heavy, but there’s a clear path forward for every scenario.
