Relative instruction for filling Passport form in such condition are as under:
In case you do not use a surname
-
leave the "Surname" column blank and write your full name in "Applicant’s Given Name" column.Some Embassies (Embassy of U.S.A., etc.) insist on surname for issue of visa. If you use a surname you must furnish the same here. No initials should be written and all initials (if any) in the applicant’s name should be expanded. For instance, for the name used above, writing the Given Name as “ P.K.JAIN ” or “ PIYUSH K JAIN” is not correct
No honorifics, titles such as Major, Doctor etc should be written.
Surname could have two words like Roy Choudhary or Das Gupta.
Column 2.2: Are you known by any other names (aliases)?
If you are known by any other name (alias), put a cross in the
Yes box and provide the details in Column 1 of the Supplementary Form. For example, if your name is Rajesh Bansal and your alias name is Raja, put a cross in the Yes box. If you are not known by any other name (alias), put a cross in the No box.
Column 2.3: Have you ever changed your name?>
If you have ever changed your name, put a cross in the Yes
box and provide the details in Column 2 of the Supplementary Form . For example, if you have changed your name from Vidhi Mehta to Aditi Mehta put a cross in the Yes box.
This will be applicable to an applicant who has even marginally changed the name or a female who has changed her name or surname after marriage. For example, if you have changed your name from Harvinder to Harjinder or Ritesh to Reetesh put a cross in the Yes box. If you have not changed your name ever, put a cross in the No box
