I recently married a German woman and she would like to change her surname to mine.
What is the procedure? Should she change her name in Germany and then show her new passport here?
or change it here.. (but then she'd have to change it again in Germany?)
its just that I don't want to send her to the 4 courts (as you have to go in person... sigh) to get a deed poll for them just to tell her to do something else..
(I take it that since this is a result of a marriage she would not require a change of name licence...?)
