How much does it cost to get your last name changed to a family name?

Question

My last name is my mom's first husband's. I met my dad last January and now I want his name, How much would it cost?

Answer 1

Buat bubur merah putih Rp 20.000. Bancakan iwak wedhus dan bakmi dan apa-apa Rp 50.000. Total Rp 70.000 = $ 8,-

That's in my country, Endonesah....

Answer 2

Unless you put it in your question, we can't tell what country you are in. It is the most frustrating thing Yahoo does. It doesn't matter if you go into domestic Yahoo or one of the International Yahoos - UK, Australia, Canada, India . . . - all of the questions in English go into one big "pot".

In my state in California you call the clerk at the county courthouse. You fill out a form and pay $320. You also take out a "Legal Notice" in a local newspaper for four weeks. That cost is in addition to the $320. If no one objects, you get your decree.

Every time you apply for a new passport, driver's license, etc you will need to mail in or show a notarized copy of the decree. If you have to mail one in and don't get it back, chalk up another $25 or so.

The procedure is the same in all counties in California, although the cost may vary. I suspect the procedure is the same in most states in the USA, although the cost and the length of time may vary.

If you are in the UK, say so and one of the UK people will explain deed polls to you.
