A Letter of Consent

A Letter of Consent is a document in which a father or mother gives their consent by signing, allowing their minor child (under 20 years old) to obtain a passport for international travel. This is used in cases where the father or mother cannot personally travel to sign the passport application in front of officials at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

*In the case of a power of attorney, consent letter, and signature certification, you must proceed in person to sign in front of the official. Sending documents by mail for legalization is not allowed.

Please schedule an appointment in advance before coming to the Embassy. You can do so at this link CLICK HERE.

 

Required documents: *Please provide two sets of each supporting document for each consent letter application and you must prepare documents for both father and mother. In the case of sole custody of a child, bring a copy of Por.Kor.14*
