Apply for a title change

Films, computer games and publications must be sold, hired, advertised and exhibited under the title with which they were originally classified.

If the title of your film, computer game or publication changes after it has been classified - and the content has not changed - you must apply to have the title updated on the classification certificate.

A new certificate will be issued and the new title will be registered on the National Classification Database.
