Power of Attorney for the child's removal abroad. Passport for a child up to 1 year

Abroad, a child can leave with one or both parents, adoptive parents or guardians, as well as with accompanying persons. Independent departure is also possible.

Document

To leave the child must have documents with him for crossing the border, one of the mandatory is the passport. You can make out both a new biometric and an old one. According to the documents of the father or mother, the child can not leave. If the parents have passports of the old type, the inclusion in them of data on the minor citizen serves only as a confirmation of the relationship, but the departure of minors is not possible at the same time. In new foreign passports, which have an electronic medium, a record of children is not made. The photograph must be present in the passport, regardless of the age of the minor citizen.

When leaving the country, under-age citizens must have documents proving the relationship (birth, custody, marriage, etc.), among which the power of attorney for the child's removal abroad is also mandatory. If the parents' surnames are different, then you need to present a copy of the marriage certificate, certified by a notary.

If the mother or father is abroad, they must apply to the consulate for the necessary documents. They then go by mail so that the child is allowed to travel abroad and was able to travel outside the country.

Differences between old and new passports

Old and new passports are almost identical, except for a few differences. The first is a microchip built into the new sample, which contains a lot of personal data, the second one is a two-dimensional photograph, and the third is the validity of foreign passports. The old one has five years, and the new one has ten.

Registration of the passport

Passport for an underage child is issued only by parents or guardians, independent receipt by his minor person is excluded. Documents are filed at the place of residence. The cost of the old passport and biometric is very different in value.

At the place of registration, a foreign passport is issued within a month, if this occurs in another city, the terms increase fourfold. Copies will be required: certificates of birth, passports and passports of parents. Also receipts of the paid state duty, photos, the questionnaire and the power of attorney on export of the child abroad are necessary. It is necessary and confirmation of citizenship.

Registration of biometric passport

You can make a biometric passport, which is suitable for children under one year. To do this you need: a completed application form, photocopies of passports and inserts about the citizenship of the parents, a birth certificate for the baby and 3 matte black and white photographs.

Parental consent

Crossing of the border by children is possible only with the consent of the persons responsible for the child. At the same time, permission of both parents for the child's removal from the country is not required - a positive decision of either the father or the mother is enough. However, sometimes there are exceptions (this is a little lower). If the consent of the second parent can not be obtained for any reason, a document is provided that confirms these circumstances. For example:

• Form number 25 from the registry office, if the mother has a certificate of a single person;
• Certificate of death of the absent parent;
• If it is impossible to determine its location - a certificate from the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
• the court's decision.

It is impossible to leave if one of the parents agrees with the second. In this case, the situation can be resolved only in court.

But you need to consider that not all countries can be entered without the consent of the second parent. And in many cases a legally required consent of the persons responsible for the minor will be required. In some countries, they will still be asked to present permits from two parents at the entrance (it is possible without legal registration), sometimes even though the child is traveling with both.

Parental disagreement

The person responsible for the child (parent, guardian, guardian) may not give his consent to the removal of a minor citizen abroad. To do this, he must submit a statement of disagreement to the territorial migration service, border control or to the consulate.

Execution of power of attorney

If a minor is taken out of the country by relatives or strangers, a power of attorney will be required to take the child abroad. For example, if it is sent to rest to relatives abroad, to a children's camp, for treatment, excursion, etc. A power of attorney is a document that is notarized and presented at the departure of a customs or border guard service.

A power of attorney is required from both parents or, if any, a guardian who is registered with a third party. In this case, the child must have a separate passport and a copy of the birth certificate. If there is no second parent, then it is necessary to provide documents on the reasons for his absence. All, except the passport, is issued by a notary. If instead of a power of attorney simple consent is made to leave unaccompanied, then the responsibility for the minor, if something happens, the persons who travel with him will not be born.

No power of attorney required

A power of attorney will not be required if the minor is traveling with his mother or father, and there is no injunction to leave the country. And in the event that he travels for a short time, and outside the country does not provide for a permanent place of residence or his adoption. But at the same time it is necessary to take a birth certificate anyway, because at the customs they can ask him.

Which countries require a power of attorney

The rules for the export of children abroad provide for a power of attorney, which, however, is not needed in all countries. For example, it will be required in the Netherlands, Ireland, Croatia, Estonia, England, Germany, France, Bulgaria, Chile and Canada. If a minor is traveling with one of the parents, then the power of attorney is needed from the second, if without them, then from both.

When entering Belarus, Moldova, Ukraine, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan, it will also be required. In some states it needs to be translated into the local language. In Egypt and Turkey, a second power of attorney is not required.

If the names of parents and children do not match, then it is necessary to have documents confirming the relationship.

Timing

It is necessary to specify the dates for visiting countries, and filling out a power of attorney for the removal of a child abroad, it is better if they are "with a margin," since unforeseen situations may arise. The law of the Russian Federation, the period for which it is issued, is not defined, although by general rules it is basically 3 years. The document can be issued only before the coming of age of the child.

Usually, notaries draw up a document for no more than three months, referring to the recommendations of the Notary Chamber. But for a long time it is useless to make out it, since the border service requires fresh documents for departure.

Schengen visa for children

The removal of minor children abroad often involves the presence of a Schengen visa, which requires the following:

• Application for its receipt (to be completed in two copies and signed by the parents or guardians);
• Photos on the established pattern;
• Copies of parental passports (or guardians);
• Travel card of the child or a copy and the original of the parents' passports where the data on the minor have been entered;
• Birth certificate - can be both original and certified copy of a notary;
• Certificate from a kindergarten or school;
• Certificate from the parents' work;
• A policy of medical insurance of the child;
• Confirmation of the financial security of the minor. If the child travels separately from his parents, then a sponsorship letter is needed to confirm the relationship of the document and an extract from the bank for the person who acts as a sponsor, where the funds are registered on the account and wages are indicated.

Documents are translated before submission to English (or to the language of the country being the final destination). Do not require the transfer of passport, banking information and insurance policy.

In the absence of the mother or father, the documents must be submitted additionally: the deprivation of parental rights by the court, the death certificate or the certificate of the mother (father) -one children. For the trustees - confirmation of the competent institution.

How to apply for a child under the age of 1 year

To travel abroad, even a child under one year will need a passport. But there are a number of nuances. If his parents have documents of the old model, the minor can be written on a separate page, pasting a photo there. But if parents have biometric passports, there is no possibility to enter a child in them, so a separate one is made out. Regular passports are prepared in one month, but you also need a visa, which is made for the child separately.

Passport to a child up to a year make out only a new sample - biometric. The term of his service is 10 years. Despite the fact that the infant is changing over the years, individual biometric data remain the same. You can get the document not only on time, but also in an accelerated mode, but its cost will be much higher.

For registration of the child, they are taken to OVIR, where they also digitize his biometric data. This procedure is not at all dangerous and simple.

There is a procedure for exporting children abroad, where it is first necessary to fill out a questionnaire. This is done by a person who represents the child's interests documentarily. Together with the questionnaire four photos of the kid, copies of documents of parents or guardians, two kinds of applications for delivery of the passport afterwards are submitted. If before that the passport was already made out, then a copy of it must be provided.
