When you get married does it cost to change your name on your passport?

Your passport is equivalent to your ID card just on an international level. Issued by the government, it is your identification for when you travel and, more importantly, it is also proof of your citizenship. Just as you would go and change your name on your driver's license, credit cards, or other ID cards, you should also change your name on your passport. If your passport has over 1 year of validity and it is within one year of your date of name change, they will just add an amendment to the back of your current passport. The amendment is free of charge unless you require your passport back early. If it has been over one year since your name change you will have to renew your passport and pay all applicable fees. Required forms or any questions can be found in the link provided below.

If you are just amending a passport by changing a name due to marriage will your passport number change?

No, you receive your original passport back, with information printed on the back page regarding the amendment date and content.AnswerThe above answer is correct that you do receive your passport back if you have more than a year validation remaining with a notation on the front page of the passport directing customs to look on the last page of your passport for the amended name.However, please keep in mind that most Asian countries will not accept an amended passport. In my case i had to make a speacial request with the passport agency explaining that the People's Republic of China do not accept amended passports and needed a new passport which did change my number for legal entry in to China.Comment:I had my passport amended to state that I had a name change. It was on one the last few pages that are there just for amendments. I lived in China (Shanghai and Shenzhen) and traveled around Asia quite a bit (Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Macau, Philippines, Indonesia, and a few other countries). Not one country had a problem with my amended passport. I always filled out forms with my new name and when they asked about the difference in name, I just directed them to the back of my passport. There was no notification on my front page in regards to my name change. I did this for about 2 years before I needed a new passport due to lack of blank pages for stamps (I go through one passport every 3-4 years). On a side note, my passport was amended by the American Consulate General in Shanghai so maybe that made a difference?It may have changedhttp://travel.state.gov/passport/get/fee/fee_2654.HTML
