How do you remove a child's biological father from the birth certificate?

You need to do some research in your particular jurisdiction. You should start by making an inquiry at the vital records department at your town clerk's office. Most do not make any changes to an original birth record for obvious reasons. Vital records are intended to document information. For various reasons a child's biological parent, if known, should be documented at least for genealogical and hereditary health reasons. If the child is adopted or the parent's right are terminated the birth record may be sealed by a court order but the original exists in most cases.
It is against public policy for a system to aid in the destruction of the record of biological parentage for any child.

Can i add a non biological father to a birth certificate if don't know the real father?
Yes you can remove a non biological father's name from a child's birth certificate and add the biological father's name. However, you must have a DNA test to disprove paternity of non biological father and another proving paternity of biological father. With these tests you can make an application (through your attorney, who would prepare the necessary paper work) to the court to remove the non biological father's name from the birth certificate. According to the law in your country, you might need the approval of the biological father to have his name added to the child's birth certificate.

It depends on the circumstances but you have to go through court to do it. A birth certificate is a legal record. Generally, an amendment to a birth record requires a court order. Each state has its own rules. There are only certain reasons a father's name can be removed from a birth certificate. The most often permitted reason requires proof the man is not the biological father. You must petition the court and the judge will render a decision after a careful review of the reason. The court order can be used to get the official record modified.

Is there any way you can get the father name taken off the birth certificate?
Perhaps you could if he relinquishes all rights or if your new husband adopts the child. However, even if you do somehow remove the name from the certificate, the fact is that he is still the biological father. Better to move on in life; fixing this will not make a large difference to the situation in the end.

How do you change your son last name from alleged father to the biological father last name?
You will have to go to court and write it all on a stamp paper and get it done by a magistrate. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In many countries you can not remove the natural fathers name from a birth certificate and a natural father has the rite to have his name added to a birth certificate. The only time you could reasonably have a father's name removed would be if you could prove the person on the certificate could not be the natural father (eg after a DNA test). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In order to remove a father's name from a birth certificate the person making the request must provide certified information to the state. The certified information must be in the form of a court order or a form signed by the biological father. Each state has its own rules. You need to contact your State Vital Records Department to determine what forms and proof they require. You should be able to find it simply by doing an internet search for your state + 'vital statistics'. Use the contact information at that website to make your inquiry. A sample request from the State of Texas is provided for your information at the link below. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If the name on the birth certificate is not the biological father, and the parents were not married when the child was born, then paternity testing, legal action and the court can decide to remove the name. HOWEVER, if the parent's WERE married, the father of the child is LEGALLY considered to be that person on the certificate, and to remove his name is very difficult. If the marriage was very very short, the baby didn't ever live with the father AND the true biological father was pursuing action to obtain parental rights AND the father on the birth certificate wanted out then there is a much greater chance. If all of these things are met, contact a family law lawyer. There is no do it yourself road on this one as far as I know. If it's about child support, contact your state's family services department. If you're the "dad", you are not getting off that certificate easily, even if your ex cheated and the child is not yours, unless you were never married and never lived together. If you're the mom, just know that both men will have to be on board with removing one name and putting the other on.

IF YOUR BABY IS UNDER A YEAR GO TO THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT AND THEY HAVE PAPERS TO FILL OUT AND IT IS FREE AFTER A YEAR I HAVE NO CLUE! Once the bioogical father is placed on the birth certificate there is no way to remove his name. The only exception *might* be if he were not the biological father but would likley have an expensive court case.
