A Consent Letter From Parent For Visa is a mandatory legal document in South Africa, required whenever a minor applies for a visa to travel internationally. This requirement stems from the Immigration Act 13 of 2002 and subsequent regulations implemented by the Department of Home Affairs to prevent child trafficking and ensure child protection. The document must be properly executed before a Commissioner of Oaths or Notary Public and includes comprehensive details about the consenting parent(s)/guardian(s), the child, travel arrangements, and purpose of travel. It's particularly crucial in cases where children are traveling with one parent, with other adults, or alone. The letter must comply with both South African legal requirements and the specific requirements of the destination country's embassy or consulate.
