Book Name Change Ad in Newspapers of Pakistan

Need to correct your name or father’s name on official documents like your CNIC, passport, or educational board certificates Publishing a name change ad in newspapers is a legal requirement in Pakistan. This guide explains the entire process.

Why Publish a Name Change Ad in Pakistan?

The Government of Pakistan mandates two newspaper ads (one Urdu, one English) to:

• Update your National ID Card (CNIC), passport, academic certificates, or board documents.
• Resolve mismatched names across documents (e.g., CNIC vs. degree).

Common Reasons for Name or Father’s Name Corrections

1. Spelling Errors: “Mohammad” vs. “Muhammad.”
2. Marriage/Divorce: Adopting a spouse’s name or reverting to a maiden name.
3. Document Mismatches: Names differ on CNIC, passport, or board certificates.
4. Father’s Name Updates: Corrections due to adoption or legal name changes.

1. Copy of your CNIC (and father’s CNIC for father’s name changes).
2. Passport-sized photos (required for board document updates).
3. Affidavit on stamp paper (explaining the reason for the change).
