What Is an Affidavit?
An affidavit is a written statement of facts that a person declares to be true under oath or affirmation before a Notary Public, Oath Commissioner, Magistrate or other authorised officer. The person making and signing the affidavit is called the deponent.
In India, affidavits are used to formally confirm facts for courts, government applications, name or address corrections, lost documents, passport and visa matters, education, property, family matters and other official purposes. An affidavit normally contains the deponent’s details, numbered statements of facts, a verification clause, the deponent’s signature and attestation by the authorised officer.
Unlike an ordinary written statement, an affidavit is sworn or affirmed as true, making the deponent responsible for the facts stated in it.
Name Change, Name Correction & Same Person Affidavit in Chennai
A name change affidavit is used when you have adopted a new name, while a name correction affidavit or One and the Same Person Affidavit is used when different documents show variations of the same person’s name.
For example, a passport may show “Karthikeyan Rajendran” while a degree certificate shows “R. Karthikeyan.” If both names belong to the same person, the affidavit can identify the two name versions, list the relevant documents and declare that they refer to one individual.
A name affidavit in Chennai is commonly prepared for:
- initials expanded or shortened in certificates
- spelling differences between passport, Aadhaar, PAN or educational records
- surname added, removed or written in a different order
- name changed after marriage
- old name and new name appearing across different documents
- signature or personal-detail mismatches that require a formal declaration
A One and the Same Person Affidavit explains a name mismatch – it does not change the name printed on the original document. For an actual legal name change, the affidavit records the old and new names and can form part of the further name-change procedure, including Gazette publication when required. Tamil Nadu publishes individual name-change notifications through the Government Gazette.
Globoprime prepares the affidavit draft and affidavit format according to the exact name difference and documents involved, arranges the appropriate stamp paper and coordinates notarization in Chennai.

Affidavit Making Services in Chennai
Globoprime provides affidavit preparation and notarization services in Chennai for personal, educational, employment, passport, visa, immigration, property and other official requirements. We prepare the affidavit draft according to its purpose, supporting documents and the authority where it will be submitted, including the applicable non-judicial stamp paper and notarization.
There is no single affidavit format for every purpose. A name correction affidavit, education gap affidavit, lost document affidavit or marriage affidavit must contain the facts required for that particular declaration. If the receiving authority has provided a prescribed affidavit format, specimen or wording, send it to us before preparation.
Our Affidavit Services in Chennai Include:
Name & Identity Affidavits
- Name Change Affidavit: for declaring an old name and new name for personal, educational or official records.

- Other Purpose-specific Affidavits: drafted according to the exact declaration and format requested by the receiving authority.
The affidavit should match the exact facts being declared. Names, dates, passport numbers, certificate details and other information should remain consistent with the supporting records.
If an affidavit is intended for use outside India, further authentication can include MEA attestation, Apostille services in Chennai or embassy attestation in Chennai, based on the country and authority where the affidavit will be submitted.
Stamp Paper for an Affidavit in Chennai
An affidavit in Chennai can require non-judicial stamp paper when the purpose of the declaration or the authority receiving it requires the affidavit to be executed on stamp paper. Tamil Nadu regulates the sale and distribution of non-judicial stamps through its stamp rules and licensed stamp vendors.
There is no single stamp paper value for every affidavit. The correct stamp paper or stamp duty depends on what the affidavit is for and the requirements of the organisation where it will be submitted.
For example, the stamp-paper requirement for a:
- name change affidavit
- address proof affidavit
- education gap affidavit
- lost document affidavit
- marriage affidavit
- property declaration
- bank or financial affidavit
Do not choose ₹10, ₹20, ₹50, ₹100 or another stamp-paper value only because it is commonly used for affidavits. The value should match the actual requirement of the document or receiving authority.
Globoprime can check the purpose first and arrange the applicable non-judicial stamp paper in Chennai together with the affidavit drafting and notarization.
Affidavit Drafting and Notarization in Chennai
Affidavit drafting and affidavit notarization are two separate parts of the process. The affidavit must first be prepared with the correct declaration, names, dates and supporting information. The deponent then signs or affirms the affidavit before the authorised Notary Public when notarization is required.
Indian Notaries Rules permit a notary to prepare and take affidavits as part of notarial work.
Globoprime coordinates the complete process in Chennai, including:
- affidavit drafting
- affidavit format preparation
- non-judicial stamp paper
- document checking
- signing requirements
- Notary Public coordination
- notarized affidavit preparation
A notary does not correct an inaccurate affidavit simply by stamping it. The names, dates and facts should be checked before the affidavit is signed and notarized.
Documents Required for an Affidavit in Chennai
The documents required for an affidavit depend on the fact you are declaring. There is no single document list for every affidavit.
For most cases, start with a valid identity document and the records connected with the declaration.
Common examples include:
- Name correction or same person affidavit: passport, Aadhaar, PAN or certificates showing the different versions of the name
- Education gap affidavit: educational certificates or records showing the study period
- Lost certificate affidavit: details or copy of the missing certificate, where available
- Address proof affidavit: identity and supporting address records
- Marriage affidavit: identity documents and marriage-related records
- Date of birth affidavit: identity records and supporting birth or educational documents
- Passport or visa affidavit: passport copy and the document connected with the application
- Affidavit for overseas use: passport and the document or foreign authority requirement connected with the affidavit
If the college, university, embassy, employer, government office or other receiving authority has given you a prescribed affidavit format, send that format before drafting.
