My wife wants to change her surname. I wanted to know the procedure. Is the name change done before or after we get the marriage certification done ? What will be her name in the marriage certificate ? Her maiden name or the changed name ?

at the time filing of application for marriage registration, you shall note the name of your wife with the surname of the husband. if already registered with maiden name, apply for correction as your choice before the registrar.

It will depend on the name what you have mentioned in the application for registration of your marriage. Decide in advance and proceed accordingly.
