Travel To Canada Identification

For many adoptive parents, international travel was a common pastime before their children came into their lives. Once they become parents, it is normal that they want to share their travel experiences with their children. The complicating factor, however, is that as an adoptive family it is necessary to take the appropriate precautions to minimize any issues entering or leaving a country.

Adoptive Parents Traveling With Child Before Adoption Finalization

The safest option for any adopted child is to hold off any travel plans until the child has been legally adopted. Once an adoption court order has been issued, the adoptive parents can then apply for a birth certificate, which will then be used in the passport application process. The exception, of course, is in situations where a child’s birth country is outside of Canada and the adoption is to be finalized on Canadian soil.

Without the appropriate paperwork, there is little proof that a child has been legally adopted by a family and for countries that have heightened awareness around child trafficking or abductions, a family without the paperwork may be detained. In cases where it is absolutely necessary for the adoptive family to travel before finalization, they must have a notarized letter from the adoption agency or licensee who is legal guardian of the child in the interim. It is also wise to ask Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada as well as the travel bureau of the country being visited if this letter will be sufficient in addition to any other adoption related documents.
