Document background
The Letter of Travel Consent for Minors is a crucial document required when minors travel internationally from Singapore without both parents present. This document became increasingly important due to global concerns about child trafficking and international parental abduction. Under Singapore law, while not always mandatory, this consent letter is strongly recommended and often required by airlines and immigration authorities. The document typically includes comprehensive details about the minor, travel itinerary, accompanying adult (if any), and emergency contacts. It provides legal protection for all parties involved and helps ensure compliance with both Singapore's domestic laws and international travel requirements.
