Cruising with my son, without his daddy...

[lilseester]

.....and I need a notarized letter stating that my husband consents with me taking our son out of the country. Can anyone help with the wording of this note? Has anyone had to do this?

 

Thanks!

sometimes your doctors office should have this, we got one when took our niece to mexico without her parents.

 

its like a letter stating we can get medical treatment for her, and take her out of the country

 

I would also check with a place where you can get it notorized, sometimes they have those forms also..

The cruise line probably has one. Go to their site.

I have done this many times. Wording as follows:

 

"I, (Dad's name here) consent to my wife, (Mom's name here) taking my son (ds' name and birthdate here) on (cruise name here), departing the United States (date here) and returning on (return date here). If any further information is required, I can be contacted by the phone number (s) below.

 

Sincerely,

 

Dad's name and address and phone number(s) including cell phone"

 

Make sure that this is dated. You won't need a medical authorization form since you are a parent.
