During job verifications, university enrollments, or overseas student visa applications, discrepancies between academic certificates, National IDs (NID), and Passports create severe administrative bottlenecks. A single misspelled alphabet or missing surname can trigger embassy visa rejections. Fortunately, under the Evidence Act and judicial procedures of Bangladesh, executing a formal 'One and the Same Person' Declaration Affidavit before a 1st Class Magistrate provides legally binding resolution.

During job verifications, university enrollments, or overseas student visa applications, discrepancies between academic certificates, National IDs (NID), and Passports create severe administrative bottlenecks. A single misspelled alphabet or missing surname can trigger embassy visa rejections. Fortunately, under the Evidence Act and judicial procedures of Bangladesh, executing a formal 'One and the Same Person' Declaration Affidavit before a 1st Class Magistrate provides legally binding resolution.
Under the statutory framework of the Ministry of Education and Judicial Regulations in Bangladesh, administrative rectifications and affidavits are legally enforceable instruments to resolve credential discrepancies.
For all regulatory, visa, and education board purposes, affidavits sworn before a 1st Class Judicial Magistrate carry absolute legal evidentiary value, far exceeding standard Notary Public attestations. These are executed on 300 BDT non-judicial stamp paper in open court.
The fastest legal solution for resolving discrepancies between certificates and NID/Passport is executing a 'One and the Same Person' Court Affidavit before a 1st Class Judicial Magistrate on 300 BDT stamp paper. This sworn declaration legally confirms that both names belong to the identical individual and facilitates seamless administrative corrections.
