A letter of consent is a letter that you write when you are giving another person permission to do something on your behalf, such as allowing your children to travel alone to other countries.

​

The consent letter must contain original signature(s), and cannot contain any restrictions, conditions, or stipulations. Any restrictions or conditions must be kept separately between the parties involved. The consent letter must simply state that consent is given to a person to use the similar name. 

​

Consent letters must be certified by a notary who can swear the validity of the letter.
