Comments Section Both parents' full names and contact details. Trip details (dates, destination, etc.). A clear statement that grants permission for the child to travel with you. Signatures from both parents, and a notary public if needed.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection recommends that any child under the age of 16 traveling without both legal guardianshave a notarized Child Travel Consent signed by both legal guardians. Having your Child's Travel Consent notarized decreases the chance of travel authorities questioning its validity.
