The Parental Consent Letter For Passport Application is a critical document required by Pakistani passport authorities when processing passport applications for minors under 18 years of age. This requirement stems from the Pakistan Passport Act, 1974, and subsequent regulations designed to prevent unauthorized travel of minors and ensure proper parental authorization. The document becomes necessary when either one or both parents need to provide explicit permission for their child's passport issuance. It must contain specific information about the child, the consenting parent(s) or legal guardian(s), and their contact details. The letter needs to be properly witnessed and authenticated, typically by a Notary Public or Oath Commissioner, to be considered valid by the passport authorities. This document serves as a safeguard against potential child trafficking and unauthorized international travel while ensuring compliance with Pakistani legal requirements for minor's documentation.
