How to Update Your Name with Credit Bureaus: A Step-by-Step Guide

If you change your name (due to marriage or other reasons), you must update your credit report so that lenders have the correct information.

First, update your name with the institutions you have a loan or credit card with.

Then, you can update it with credit bureaus such as CRIF High Mark, CIBIL, Experian, and Equifax.

You can do this online or by sending a letter with documents like a PAN card, Aadhaar card, or marriage certificate.

The process usually takes about a month.

This ensures your credit report is accurate and helps with getting loans or credit cards.
