Check your destination and airline before you go. **Can you write the letter for me?** Notaries can't draft documents. Bring your completed letter, unsigned, and every signing parent's photo ID. **Do both parents need to sign?** Usually the parent who isn't traveling signs. If neither parent is traveling, both may need to sign. Check the airline and destination country's rules. **How far in advance should I do this?** As soon as travel plans are set, so there's time to fix anything the airline or country asks for.
