Sample Letter of Consent
Travel with a one parent
Single Parent Travel
Mexico has the highest rate of parent child abductions from the United States. Although Mexican law requires that all Mexican nationals traveling to Mexico as a single parent with children, must provide a notarized parental letter of consent from the non-traveling spouse or legal proof that no other parent exists.
It is wise for any single parent traveling with a child to take two copies of a letter of consent to avoid unexpected problems. See the Children's Issues section of the U.S. Department of State “Consular Information Sheet” for Mexico.
