She won’t be permitted to leave the country without a letter from him permitting the children to leave. [/quote]

This is totally incorrect.[/quote]

Your posting privileges should be revoked since you relay bad information. She absolutely needs to have a letter giving permission. In fact, it is advised that even couples traveling internationally together with a child carry such a letter in case they get separated.[/quote]

It may be advised since it's difficult to advise against it.  But it is incorrect that it is required.  I've traveled with my child multiple times and never was I asked for anything.[/quote]

It appears there is not a US law per se that requires parental permission.  But, and this is a critical but, many other countries have such requirements.  If you do not have documents that you need for the country, or that an airline believes you may need, there is a chance that they will not let you board.  If they let you board, the country you are going to may not let you in.

Multiple posters here have shared that they have been asked for notarized documentation allowing travel.  That doesn't mean everyone gets asked, but traveling without such authorization creates a real risk that you will not be allowed to board or enter the other country.[/quote]
