Florida name change after divorce

Many filers request restoration of a prior name as part of the divorce decree or judgment. If available in Florida, the name change request is usually included in the petition and final order so the signed divorce document can be used after the case is final.

Use the exact prior name you want restored.

Check spelling before submitting final documents.

The final signed decree or judgment is usually the key record.

After the court signs the order

After finalization, you may need certified copies of the signed decree or judgment to update identity records, financial accounts, employment records, insurance, and other documents.

Ask the clerk how to order certified copies.

Update records one agency at a time.

Keep a certified copy in your records.

When a separate name change may be needed

If the requested change is not restoration of a prior name, or if the court does not include it in the divorce order, a separate name change process may be required.

Check the local court requirements.

Use the name exactly as ordered by the court.

Avoid submitting inconsistent names across forms.
