Consent letter for UK visa for minors
Do we need a consent letter or document other than the standard passport and birth certificate for children when both parents are also going along?
Best Answer
The consent letter is needed ONLY if the children are travelling alone. If any adult is accompanying the minors then you’ll need to provide specific information about them in your application.
