In Louisiana, a petition for a name change, explaining the
reason for the requested change, must be filed in the district court of
the parish of your residence, the parish of your birth, or the parish of
venue for the Vital Records Registry. The judge will have a hearing in
roder to determine that the reason for the name change isn't for an
improper purpose, such as to defraud creditors.Z
Once a name change is granted, a copy of the order for name change may
be required in order to change names on personal records and accounts,
such as Social Security Card, Voter Registration, Employer, Banks and
other Financial Institutions, Clubs and Organizations, Drivers License,
Post Office, Insurance Companies, IRS, State Tax Commission, etc.
Requirements vary by entity, so they should be contacted individually.
We offer a notification process with forms and instructions to help
