This is something that very few men will ever have to worry
about, but a woman who has recently been married (or divorced for that
matter) may find that as they are about to hit the road, their passport
does not have the right name on it. It is important that the passport
name be changed before the trip and even if it was mistakenly not done
prior to the trip, it can still be taken care of rather quickly.
Expedited passport name change service is available and is only a mouse
click away.
In regards to passport applications, this may actually be one of the faster services that anyone will ever have to go for. For those of us that have had to go through the process of getting a passport for the first time, we know this to be a true blessing. Just head to the wonderful world of the Internet and all of the information that is needed will be right at your fingertips.
When a name has to be changed on a passport, proof will have to be provided to the issuing agency as to the reason. In most cases, this will probably be because of either adoption (for children) or marriage/divorce (for women). Be sure to have all legal documentation on hand and make extra copies just to speed the process along.
By going onto the Internet to the agency site (be it a regional passport office or post office), the applicant can download all of the files that are necessary and have them filled out and ready to go before they ever even get to the agency. If the passports have less than a year to go before it expires, they will actually make you get a renewed passport instead of just updating the one that is in existence.
For those that need to have this done in a rush, there are services that are available that can make this process go very quickly, for a fee of course. Even if the court documentation is missing, there are steps that can be taken to make the changes that the applicant needs to have done. While we would all like to think we are perfect, even the best of us misplace documents from time to time and when there is a crunch in getting the details of the passport changed, it is nice to know that it can still be handled.
As with most services, the higher the level of service that is needed, the more money it is going to cost. For instance, there is standard expedited service that is fairly reasonable. If someone needs a passport within 24 hours, it can be done, but it will be significantly more money.
In addition to all of the extra documentation, it is also a good idea to have a new passport photo taken to have a current and updated image to go on the passport. Sometimes this is not required, but it will offer an added measure of security to your passport. In order to obtain a new photo, do an Internet search for providers near your location that do passport photography.

Once everything is gathered for the expedited passport name change,
the final step is nothing more than putting everything in an envelope
and mailing it off. We recommend that an overnight service be used to do
this as it will provide more protection for the passports
documentation. Not only that, but the applicant will be provided with
tracking information and will have the security of knowing exactly when
their documentation was received and that the agency actually took
possession of it.
