The Consent Letter For Minors Passport is a crucial document required under Swiss law when applying for a minor's passport. This document becomes necessary whenever a passport application is submitted for individuals under 18 years of age, particularly in situations where one parent is absent or when legal guardians are involved. The letter serves as official documentation of parental or guardian consent, helping prevent unauthorized passport issuance and protecting against potential child abduction. Under Swiss federal regulations, the consent letter must include specific information about the minor, the consenting parties, and their legal authority to grant such permission. The document may need to be accompanied by supporting documentation such as birth certificates, custody agreements, or court orders, depending on the specific circumstances. It's particularly important in cases involving international travel or when parents are separated or divorced.
