Consent to Travel for Minor Translation

A child travel consent form is a legal document used to grant written permission for a minor to travel domestically or internationally without a parent or legal guardian. The form is primarily for when a child travels with one of the parents, a  group, school, or an adult who is not a legal guardian. But the form is also essential when a child is traveling alone.

Although it’s not a legal requirement, it’s considered an asset – especially when traveling internationally. Failure to present these documents upon request could cause travel delays, or your child could be denied entry or exit entirely. Immigration authorities in foreign countries, airline agents, and country officials may ask for a travel consent form at any point during a trip.

Translation of this document is essential. It must be certified by the translator, notarized and it is always a great idea to receive an Apostille for the consent.
