Can I Travel with My Child Without the Father’s Consent?
To aid in preventing child abductions, both parents must sign a Child Travel Consent Letter.
This is especially important if a child is going to travel with only one parent internationally.
However, you may be in a special situation that leaves you asking yourself: is it possible to travel with my child without the father’s consent or the mother’s consent?
Certain circumstances allow for only one parent to sign the Minor Travel Consent Form.
Only one of the parent’s signatures will be necessary if: one parent has sole custody of the child, or one of the parents is deceased.
If the other parent is deceased, certain airlines or countries may request to see the death certificate of the parent who has passed away.
