I am a divorcee since july, 2018. HighCourt has given my son custody to my ex-wife. At the time of divorce age of my son is 6years. The custody of my daughter is with me having age 14 years. My ex-wife got married again. My question is that, Whether it is possible to change the name of the father from birth certificate?

A.No. The name of the father cannot be changed in the birth certificate.

however, the name can be changed on the school certificates or other ID documents but that too would involve your consent and a suit in the court.

A.Yes,It is possible to change the name of father or mother in birth certificate and for that process is as follows.

If any one desire to change the name of the father or mother in the birth certificate,he or she have to adopt the child and get the adoption registered and declared by a court order based ion which you can apply for change of name of father or mother in the birth certificate.

Thanks,
