How to amend wife name in documents if divorce not taken from wife


05-May-2023 (In Documentation Law)
Dear Sir/Madam, I got married on July 16th, 2006 and after two years my wife left me on May 13th, 2008. I don’t know where she and her family are living now. Now I want to separate from my ex-wife legally. What is the procedure and how to proceed further on this? Also, my Passport got expired on April 30th, 2018 and now I want to renewal my passport. At the first time of renewal I have included my ex-wife name in the passport. After 4 years I got married second time. But now I want to remove my ex-wife name and include my second wife name in my passport. I do not have any legal papers with me. Now I need passport to travel pilgrimage visit to Saudi Arabia (Mecca and Madina). For this purpose we both need passport. Please help me how to proceed further on this.

You should get divorce legally from proper court by filing petition saying her last known address. You can get one side order. Using this you can remove her name in all documents. So your issue is not big one and can be solved legally.
