Will the number change when I renew my passport with my married name?
by Sarah

Question: I am recently married and have changed my name with social security. My passport expires in August, so I need to renew it now, and with my new name.
I am planning a trip to Europe for the spring- can i use my current passport number with my maiden name even though by April I will have a new passport?
Answer: Your new passport will have a new number in it. Since the passport will have both a new number and your new name in it, you should wait until your passport renewal application is processed before purchasing the tickets for your trip.
The Secure Flight Program of the TSA requires ticket information and passport data to match exactly. Click the link below for complete instructions.
