The Government have issued instructions to liberalise the procedure of correction of name in Birth Certificates. It is reported that hundreds of complaints received regarding correction in the Birth Certificate. So Government have issued circular about the procedures to be followed:

1. If parents have entered wrong name in the birth certificates (like pet names etc., spelling mistakes etc), the name can be corrected as per the name entered in the Admission Register of the concerned school. For this the parents (Joint affidavit by Father and Mother) (in case of minors)/person have to submit an affidavit stating the reasons why the wrong name entered in the Birth Register and to remit Rs.50/- as compounding fee. The name is only corrected as same in the SCHOOL CERTIFICATE and not as entered in any other documents (like PASSPORT, DRIVING LICENCE ETC).

For correcting the Birth Certificate you should approach the Local Birth Registrar of the concerned Local Self Government Institutions with the affidavit, the original birth certificate issued earlier and affidavit. You have to remit Rs.50/- as compounding fee. After correction you have to apply for a new certificate.
