Translation: My ex husband and I were married in a catholic church in Dubai, so my surname was changed to my ex-husband's. I would now like to change back my surname to my maiden name, since we've been separated for several years now. I also checked NSO and found no record of our supposed marriage, even computer records. I also had this red ribbon for DFA. I also had this checked in the Philippine embassy in Dubai and they could not find any records. What should I do now to change the name on my passport?
