Legal formalisation of a consent form for a child to leave the United Kingdom

Our legal service provides full support in preparing a consent form from the other parent for the child to leave the United Kingdom. This document must comply with British law, be legally correct and acceptable to border services and consulates.

In order to ensure the legal validity and international recognition of the document, Consultant's lawyers carry out the following:

• analysis of the client's situation and the purpose of the child's trip;
• 
  verification of the legal status of the parents and the existence of restrictions on departure;
• 
  drafting of the text of the application in accordance with the requirements of the UK Border Force and consular authorities;
• 
  translation of the document into the appropriate language (if necessary);
• 
  notarisation or apostille (if required by the country of destination).

As a result, the client receives a legally correct, notarised consent form that meets international standards and the requirements of the country of destination.

Obtaining permission for a child to travel abroad: key requirements and legal nuances

In order to avoid legal risks and ensure smooth border crossing, it is important to consider:

1. whether the parents have joint or sole custody;
2. 
   whether there are any court decisions or restrictions on the child's travel;
3. 
   whether additional confirmation of consent from other legal representatives is required.

Consultant lawyers:

• advise on the legal requirements in a specific situation;
• 
  check that the document complies with the requirements of the destination country;
• 
  adapt the application to the specific purpose of the trip (tourism, study, medical treatment, etc.).

As a result, the client receives a permit that takes into account all legal nuances and minimises the risks of being denied entry at the border.
