What should I do if I want to keep my current name instead of returning to my maiden name when I get divorced?
Update date: August 30, 2013
If you submit a "notification of the surname you used at the time of marriage" at the same time as the divorce notification, you can compile a new family register with the surname you used at the time of divorce without having to re-register in the family register before the marriage.
