Question

Holidaying in Spain - is there a problem with a child travelling on a parent's passport?

Answer 1

are you coming from the US???  are you a US citizen?

here's a link for more info if you're a US citizen...

how old is your child?

well, I guess it doesn't matter how old the child is coz I know it is a requirement even for infants.

As soon as I had my baby I got her birth certificate and applied for a passport and we travelled when she was a few months old.

FYI: there's also extra requirements besides passports when your child is a minor and travelling with only 1 parent. the link above will tell you more about it.

buen viaje...

Answer 2

No problem at all.

Answer 3

I'm almost certain that  your child will need a passport, too.  Call the Spanish embassy to make sure.

Good luck.

PS ~ I've been to Spain and it's beautiful!  Had a blast there.  The European countries seem to be more "child friendly" to me.  You'll see people with their kids everywhere.

Answer 4

Even babies need their own passports to travel internationally.

Answer 5

Answer 8

Each child must have their own passport.

Answer 9

All children must have their own passports now, I would get them asap and have the forms checked at the post office before sending them, worth the money rather than messing around

Answer 10

If the child is under one, I think it is ok.  It was ok for me anyway going to Germany. That was a little while ago, though. You may need to call the Post office or Passport agency to be sure.

Answer 11

I understand that all people need a passport no matter how young they are.  So the child must have his/her own passport.

Answer 12

I would imagine that different countries have different laws.

I might be wrong, but I think in the UK a child needs a seperate passport.

Answer 13

WELL DUH!
