When traveling with only one parent with a child under 18, the parent must have one of the three following things:1) A letter...SIGNED AND NOTORIZED...from the absent parent giving permission to take the child out of the country. I always suggest including ship and sailing date in the letter.2) If the traveling parent has sole custody, then a copy of the sole custody document from the divorce papers. Will be fine.3) If the absent parent is deceased, a copy of the death certificate is required.I have heard it said that "they don't really check" but be warned, this is a government regulation. If they do check and you don't have it, the child will not bew allowed to travel.Happy Cruising,Michael =sailor
