Name Change
To change your name in our database, all individuals who have taken an examination with the NBSTSA must submit a Name Change and/or Replacement Form by online or by mail and a provide a copy of one of the following legal documents:
- Marriage certificate
- Divorce decree (only the page regarding your name change and page with the official seal are necessary)
- Driver’s license
- Passport
- Social security card
- Court order or naturalization paperwork.
The easiest and fastest way to submit your name change is through your online portal. Please use the login button in the upper right menu of this page to login to your profile. Click "Maintenance Applications" in the middle of the page, and click "Begin" to start the submission of your name change request. You'll be able to securely upload supporting documents right through the portal, and we will process for you.
There is no charge to change your name, but if you wish to have new documents issued, there will be a small charge. Forms that do not require payment may be faxed to (303) 325-2536.
Be sure to let us know if you have an open Authorization To Test (ATT) period so that we can notify the testing company of your name change. If your documents do not match the name on file, you will not be able to gain entrance to the examination.
If you are submitting an Examination or Renewal Application at the same time as requesting a name change, you may skip the name change form and simply include one the legal documents with the renewal application, which should be filled out and signed with the new name and have the former name written in the space provided.
