A Consent Letter For Name Change is a crucial document in Hong Kong's legal framework for personal identification changes. This document is required when an individual wishes to formally change their name, or when a parent/guardian is providing consent for a minor's name change. The letter must comply with Hong Kong's Registration of Persons Ordinance (Cap. 177) and related regulations. It is commonly used for updating official records with various authorities, including the Immigration Department, schools, and financial institutions. The document typically includes the current legal name, proposed new name, identification details, and explicit consent statement. For minors, additional requirements include parental/guardian information and proof of relationship. The letter may need to be witnessed or notarized depending on its intended use and may require supporting documentation such as identification papers or birth certificates.
