I believe the answer is yes, you can have it updated, but your father will have to agree to it. As Donna says, the local RO will tell you what the procedure is.

Why don't you contact your local Register Office and ask them? They should be able to tell you.

Hello,

My father's name is not on my birth certificate, is it possible to re-register so I can have his name put on it??

I am 26.

Thanks for your help.

Donna.
