Checklist: Traveling with a child

  • Travel consent document

    Required when a child is not traveling with both parents

  • Child's passport

    Minimum 6 months validity beyond return date

  • Copies of parents' identification

    Attach to the consent document

  • Additional documents if required

    Birth certificate, court order, or notarized form depending on destination

Don't get caught unprepared

When traveling with a child, airlines or border authorities may ask for proof of consent.

  • •Check-in can take longer
  • •You may face additional questions
  • •In some cases, boarding may be refused

Many parents only realize this when it's already stressful to fix — especially when traveling with one parent, after a separation, or with grandparents.

Legal Requirements

When a trip is tomorrow, there is no time to waste. A travel consent document can be generated, downloaded, and printed within minutes. The critical point: it must be signed by the absent parent before you leave — a digital signature sent by the other parent and printed is accepted in most countries (except where notarization is legally required: Brazil, Mexico, South Africa, and Italy).

Commonly Requested Documents

  • You are traveling internationally with only one parent — you need a signed letter of consent from the other parent
  • You are traveling with a grandparent or non-parent adult — you need consent from both parents
  • The child has a different last name from the traveling adult — carry the birth certificate too
  • Your destination is France (legal requirement), Mexico, Brazil, or South Africa (notarization legally required)
  • Your airline operates on a route known for documentation checks (South Africa, Mexico, Middle East)

  • Formatted to support airline check-in and border control documentation expectations
