In South Carolina, there are primarily three ways to
establish legal fatherhood.
Both parents can
voluntarily acknowledge paternity while at the hospital when their child is
born by completing a Voluntary Paternity Acknowledgment.
Both parents can
go to the State Office of Vital Records or to the Vital Records office at their
County Health Department and complete the Voluntary Paternity Acknowledgment at
any time after their child is born (there is a $27 fee to complete this process
at Vital Records).
