Yes, a father can still have rights even if his name is not on the birth certificate. Paternity can be established through other means such as DNA testing or a court order, which can grant the father legal rights and responsibilities towards the child.

Do you have to list the father on a birth certificate?

No, this is why the birth certificate does not hold up in court when the father seek paternal rights because it is not fool proof by showing DNA. If you are not married I strongly recommend you get it done though before he signs. Only the biological father is allowed to sign it and if you know the one signing it is not the father, you are committing fraud.
