Name Change in Passport
It is often happened with the women that they require change of name in passport as they get married, re-married or divorce. If anybody requires change of name in the passport they should submit all the documents required for it. In general, the marriage certificate is enough. If any person has changed his/her name without any reason then they should submit an affidavit for it.
Addition of Spouse Name
Before marriage if you are applying for an Indian Passport then while filling the application form you need to write Not Applicable in the column where Spouse Name is asked.

Deletion of Spouse Name
If you have added your spouse name in your passport after your marriage then it might be required for you to delete your spouse name if you are divorced or it may be required to you to change the name of your spouse if you are re-married. To delete or change the name of your spouse you need to submit an application form for reissue of passport with name deletion or change of name along with the documentary proofs for divorce or re-marriage or any other cause. Then after verification of the proofs the passport authority will issue you a new passport with deletion or change of name.
