Did you change your first or last name in the U.S. or anywhere else abroad and now want to change the name in your Russian passports and other documents as well? Here at RUSSIAN AGENCY we would be happy to assist you to quickly and officially update your documents. Whether you have a valid Russian internal passport or not, you can still apply for an official name change in your Russian travel passport through either a Russian Consulate or Embassy in the U.S.
Russian Consulates abroad have very strict requirements about documents they accept for name changes. If you want to change your last name based on your marriage certificate, this certificate must indicate that you have received the new last name after marriage. Unfortunately, most states in the U.S. do not indicate the new last name on the marriage certificate. If this situation applies to you, you must request a petition of name change through a court.
We are glad to help you with every step of this complicated process. We can obtain apostilles and make certified Russian translations as it is required by the Consulate for additional fees. Also, we will have the Russian Consulate review all the paperwork before submitting to avoid having your application denied.
Throughout the years we have been in business, we have worked with many complicated cases, such as multiply name changes. Please call us (888) 9-RUSSIA or (888) 978-7742 to discuss the specifics of your case!
You can obtain either a 5-year or 10-year Russian travel passport with a name change through our company.
After receiving your new Russian travel passport with your name change you will be able to obtain a new Russian internal passport in Russia at the Ministry of Internal Affairs with the documents proving the name change which you have already used with the Russian Consulate/Embassy.
