GETTING NAME CORRECTED ON INDIAN PASSPORT

Post by siddharthsingh02 » Mon Dec 15, 2014 12:17 pm

Hi All,

I have my name mentioned completely in my passport in family name section and surname section was empty when it was issued.
It has been like this for years and I am in UK on Tier 2 ICT visa.

SURNAME:
FAMILY NAME: SIDDHARTH SINGH

Since I am planning to apply for Australian PR, I am planning to get it changed to below by applying at Birmingham consulate.

SURNAME: SINGH
FAMILY NAME: SIDDHARTH

How would I transfer my UK visa from old to new passport?> Do I need to do anything for my spouse as well.

Any suggestion is appreciated.

Regards,
Siddharth

Your surname is your family name. So the details mentioned in the original post are incorrect. I presume that you want to distinguish between family name and given name.
