- Correct up to 3 characters of your name
- Correct the salutation
- Correct the maiden/married name
- Add your middle name

- Name changes or corrections cannot be made by phone.
- You will be required to provide proof of correct name, such as your passport, driver’s license, marriage or divorce certificate, etc.

How to Change Passenger Name on Singapore Airlines Ticket
How to change the name on a passenger’s ticket at Singapore Airlines?
If your name does not appear correctly on your ticket, you must call customer service number, your local Singapore Airlines office, or your travel agent and ask them how to fix the issue.

Singapore Airlines Name Change Fee
How much does it cost to change a name on a plane ticket on Singapore Airlines?
Minor name corrections such as spelling mistakes made by Singapore Airlines’ staff typically will not attract a name change fee. Other name corrections and/or changes will attract an Airline Service Fee (OC Tax) of USD 50 for the UK and a similar fee for other countries.
If the name change entails a new PNR—such as a name change after marriage, divorce, or adoption—you will have to pay the applicable flight change fee. This can range from USD 75 (Economy Class), USD 100 (Premium Economy Class), USD 200 (Business Class), and USD 500 (First Class). However, for the exact fee, check the fare conditions of your ticket or call customer service number or your local Singapore Airlines office.
