Adding a father's name to a birth certificate

Re-register your child바카라 사이트™s birth to add the natural father바카라 사이트™s details to the birth record.

The form you fill in depends on whether:

• you marry or form a civil partnership with the natural father after your child바카라 사이트™s birth was registered - you must re-register the birth by law
• you바카라 사이트™re not married or in a civil partnership but you want the natural father바카라 사이트™s name on the birth record

Take the completed form to the register office. If you바카라 사이트™re not married or in a civil partnership and one of you can바카라 사이트™t be there, that person also needs to fill in a 바카라 사이트˜Statutory declaration of acknowledgement of parentage바카라 사이트™ form and post it to the General Register Office.

Getting a new birth certificate

If you want a new birth certificate you바카라 사이트™ll have to order one separately - you don바카라 사이트™t get one automatically when you re-register the birth.

If the wrong father is named on the current birth certificate, you can ask for a correction. That will remove the wrong father바카라 사이트™s name. Then you can re-register the birth with the right father바카라 사이트™s name.

If there바카라 사이트™s been a 바카라 사이트˜Declaration of Parentage바카라 사이트™

A Declaration of Parentage is when the court decides who the father of a baby is. You don바카라 사이트™t need to do anything to change the birth record if there바카라 사이트™s been a Declaration of Parentage made by a court. The court will tell the General Register Office and the birth will be re-registered. You바카라 사이트™ll need to order a new birth certificate if you want one.
