I am underage, traveling without parents across the border, and no photo id. is that ok?

Question

I'm 15, crossing the canada/us border, and my only form of photo id was stolen (student card & bus pass) and i only have my birth certificate. I leave in 9 days, and do not have time to get a BC id, or a passport. Will i still be able to travel with only my birth certificate, and a letter of consent for international travel from my parents?

Answer 1

You have the right identification. For 15 and under,  all you need is a birth certificate for a land crossing.  And the letter of consent from your parents is also required.

But I don't know if they will let you in at that age unless you have an adult accompanying you or proof you are meeting an adult on the other side.

Answer 2

No you need two forms of ID, one must be a legal photo ID.  (live near US/Canadian border)

Answer 3

No. You need photo id..probably more than one piece also.

Answer 4

now are you a canadian coming back to canada or an american going there?

because that makes a difference

and you will be totally alone?

well the states is pretty dangerous especially for a kid like on the global peace index theyre WAY up there, I believe they are at 97

so your better off in Canada unless you know how to wield a knife really well
