After the child's birth and any time until the child reaches age 18, the mother and child's father can establish paternity if they fill out and sign the Acknowledgment of Paternity form (Form DH-432) *. Both parents must fill out and sign this form in the presence of two witnesses or a notary public.
Technically, yes, you can add the father's name to the birth certificate later, but only if certain conditions are met. In this case, the mother needed to be unmarried at the time of the birth, and no other person must be listed as the father on the birth record.
Paternity Acknowledgement A father's name may be added to his child's birth record only in the case where the mother was unmarried at the time of the child's birth and no father is listed on the birth record. Notarized signatures of both parents OR two witnesses for each parent (may be the same witnesses) are required.
If a man is not listed on a child's birth certificate, he has no legal right to make decisions for the child or enforce visitation. Therefore, the father does not have a right to participate in decisions about the child's living arrangement, education, healthcare, religious upbringing, or extracurricular activities.
In addition to signing the birth certificate, you must file an establishment of paternity case through filing a Petition to Establish Paternity with the court. In order to file this petition in a Florida court, you must have been a Florida resident for at least 6 months prior to filing.
