My daughters father is German and lives in Germany, I am english and live in England with our 16 month old. I would like to emigrate to Australia. Am I legally allowed to do that with our daughter? He will remain in Germany and would try and stop us from going. He is not listed currently on the birth certificate.

yes. who knows, he might even move here to keep the relationship .
why would you want to move your daughter so far away from a father who hs a relationship with her anyway? you might want to move but you need to put her needs first

When you have children your life changes, you must put the needs of that child before anything else
Your daughter does not have to go with you now, she can wait until her child is old enough to make major decisions like moving to the other side of the world for herself
Not named on the birth cert goes in your favour, for now but if dad wants to stay on contact with his child, then it is quite easily sorted in court
Have you actually asked the father about this?
IMO, to take a 16 month old baby, who sees her dad, to another country which is so far away it would be considered impossible to maintain regular contact, is selfish and necessary
