Issues related to changing the name

Post by newborn » Fri Mar 15, 2019 2:56 am

Hello

I would like to change my first and last name. I would like to know some things. Such as

What is the procedure here in Finland?
What is the cost?
What will I need to do for all things here in Finland (e.g Bank, the degree certificates in Finland, my national ID card/passport)?
What will happen to my names in the birth certificate, educational certificates that I have got in my home country?

Birth and educational certificates you should ask from the country of origin and relevant institution.

Visa is for visiting, Residence Permit for residing.

It would take 2-4 month to process it for Finnish citizen. Im not sure about your case

After they approve your new name. police / bank/ kela and population center will be noticed about it by maistraatti.

Fee : 45€ for first name . Last name : 100€

And ofc, you have to apply to renew all the cards you have had before with your old name such as : bank card, library card, K market card bla bla bla....
