If the child is not accompanied by both parents, we recommend carrying a consent letter signed by the non-accompanying parent, regardless of the parents' marital status (single, married, common-law, separated, divorced or never married).
It is not always required, however having one gives peace of mind for all eventualities. Any parent who is not travelling with the minor will need to sign the travel consent. They will need to attend an appointment with the notary and have certain identification documents.
