Learn more about applying for a replacement
document
Your eligibility to apply for a replacement document depends on the reason for your request. You may apply for a replacement if:
• You were issued a Certificate of Naturalization, Certificate of Citizenship, Declaration of Intention, or Repatriation Certificate which was
lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated
• You were issued a Certificate of Naturalization, Certificate of Citizenship, Declaration or Repatriation Certificate which is incorrect due to a
typographical/clerical error by USCIS
• Your name was changed by marriage or by court order after the document was issued and you seek a document in your new name
• You received your Certificate of Citizenship and afterwards you obtained a court order or a state‐issued document that changes your date
of birth and you seek a certificate with the new date of birth
• You were issued a Certificate of Citizenship or a Certificate of Naturalization and your change of gender is legally recognized through a
court order, a government‐issued document, or a medical certification
• You are a naturalized citizen seeking a special certificate of naturalization for the purpose of a foreign country recognizing you as a citizen
of the United States.
NOTE: USCIS will not change your name without evidence such as a marriage certificate, divorce decree, or court order. We will not change
the date of birth on a Certificate of Citizenship without documentation such as a U.S. court order or state‐issued documents.
USCIS cannot make any changes to an incorrect date of birth on a Naturalization Certificate if you reported an incorrect date on your
Application for Naturalization (N‐400), and then later swore to the facts of your application by signing Part 16, Signature at Interview. We
can only change the name on your Certificate of Naturalization if you changed your name after you naturalized.
