FAQ · Q145
Can one parent travel to Russia with a child?
Yes, but check required documents and parental consents for departure, transit and the child’s citizenship; notarised consent is not universally required.
A single parent can travel with a child, provided you have the correct documents and consents required by the country of departure, transit and the child’s citizenship. There is no universal rule that a notarised consent is always mandatory, so check specific border and airline requirements in advance. Ensure every child has the appropriate entry papers and any carrier-specific forms to avoid problems at departure or arrival.
