Change of Name FAQs

What documents are required for a marriage-related name change?

For marriage-related surname changes, you typically need a registered Marriage Certificate, a valid International Passport, a Sworn Affidavit, and official newspaper/gazette publication where applicable.

Why must my name match across NIN, BVN, and my passport?

Nigerian regulations require complete name consistency across all official databases. Inconsistencies can cause bank account freezes, SIM card blocking, or passport application delays.

Can County Service Group help align my names across NIN and BVN?

Yes. We audit your documentation and assist in submitting appropriate modification requests to both NIMC (for NIN) and your financial institution/BVN database.

Do I need a UK Deed Poll for a name change?

If your legal name change occurred in the UK outside of marriage, a legal Deed Poll alongside statutory declarations may be required depending on NIMC and Nigerian Immigration Service guidelines.
