Document background
A Permission Letter From Parents is a crucial legal document used in Austria when temporary authorization needs to be granted for a minor's activities or care. It is primarily used when parents need to delegate certain decision-making rights to other adults or organizations, such as schools, healthcare providers, or activity organizers. The document must comply with Austrian Civil Code (ABGB) requirements, particularly sections relating to parental rights and child protection. This permission letter includes detailed information about the child, parents/guardians, the specific activities or circumstances being authorized, duration of the permission, and emergency contacts. It's commonly required for school excursions, medical treatments, sports activities, international travel, or situations where parents may be temporarily unreachable.
