# How many times can I change my name?

### **Is there a limit to how many times I can change my name in Singapore?**

In general, **there is no specific legal limit** to the number of times you can change your name in Singapore using a **Deed Poll**. However, name changes are subject to approval by relevant authorities such as the **Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA)**.

Each name change must:

- Be supported by a properly executed Deed Poll;
- Comply with ICA’s name formatting guidelines;
- Not be misleading, offensive, or for improper purposes.

### **What should I consider before changing my name again?**

Before proceeding with another name change, consider:

- Whether the change is necessary and justified;
- Whether the new name may cause issues with your personal, legal, or financial records;
- The time and effort involved in updating official documents and records (NRIC, passport, banks, etc.).

### **Can minors change their names more than once?**

Yes, minors can change their names more than once, but each application is subject to **strict parental consent requirements**. ICA generally requires:
