How do I change my name with AAPC?
We understand that name changes can happen, or perhaps you initially entered a nickname when it was time to schedule your exam. For the integrity of your credentials, your legal name must match what is on your exam—just like how your ID matches your airline ticket.
To update your name with AAPC, follow these steps:
Ensure you have your government-issued photo ID ready. Please note that there are different requirements for name changes depending on whether you are in the U.S. or internationally.
Complete the name change application on this form.
Submit the necessary documents as required by AAPC.
After submitting your application, please allow 3-5 business days for AAPC to process your request.
Please remember, to print out a new confirmation if you have an exam scheduled at a testing center to prevents any confusion with your check-in process.
If you have any questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out to AAPC customer support at 1-800-626-2633.
