1. International Travel:When a minor travels with one parent, relatives, or guardians.
   
2. School or Sports Trips:Required for educational or extracurricular travel.
   
3. Custody Agreements:Complies with legal agreements during parental separation.
   

Steps for Notarization:

1. Complete the Form:Include details like the minor's name, travel dates, destination, and the accompanying adult’s information.
   
2. Verify Identity:Parents or legal guardians must present valid photo IDs.
