There's paperwork, but it would have no legal standing. Just magical forgeries, but forgeries nonetheless, that are ultimately meaningless since Storybrooke isn't even on the map, it's just this empty spot of land as far as anyone in the non-magic world is concerned.

"You say you live in Storybrooke, Maine? There is no record such place. Can you point it out on the map? That's an empty spot of wilderness." That's what happened to Owen when he tried to explain what happened to him after escaping Storybrooke. The authorities thought he was insane. The point you're making kills any possibility of anyone legally removing Regina's custody of Henry XD If someone from Storybrooke left Storybrooke, they'd still have a driver's license and such to do so, and cursory glance over such a thing wouldn't raise any alarms. "Oh, you lived in Storybrooke? Never heard of it!"

But it's fun to ponder, isn't it? :D
