Maxwell Book Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Hello, Thanks in advance. When a child leaves Thailand with only one parent is special permission needed from the absent parent? Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazybones Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I have, on many occasions, brought my step son's son, who lives with my wife and I in Thailand, to Australia to visit with his dad. Most times I have his dad sign a letter, plus a signed copy of his passport, giving his permission for this to occur. Only one time have I ever needed to use the letter. Just today, armed with the letter, my grandson, now 11 years old, took it into his head to go through the automatic check-in by himself. Nobody stopped him. I questioned the immigration officer present who replied that if the boy is tall enough then that's OK. TIT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When my daughter was younger (American) iI will take er with me all over the world, every time I did I had a notarized letter from her mom saying that it was Ok for me to do so. I was asked for it several times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liquorice Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I suspect it depends if the child has the same surname and using the same nationality passport as the parent. I had 4 kids, single parent, never once asked where the Mother was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Tom Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I travelled from Thailand to UK with my Grandchild, different name. I carried with me a Permission Letter, signed by both his parents and witnessed by a Lawyer and duly stamped. I was asked for it at UK Immigration, so it was a good move. No issues on the return flight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
