- What it is for
- This consent form records the permission of a non-accompanying parent or a person with parental responsibility for a child under 18 to be granted an Australian visa for travel to or stay in Australia. It is used to confirm consent where a child intends to travel and a responsible adult is not accompanying them.
- Who completes it
- A non-accompanying parent, or a person with lawful parental responsibility for the child, signs and provides the form; where one person is solely responsible for deciding where the child lives, only that person needs to sign.
- Information it collects (in general terms)
- It gathers identifying details of each child, identifying and contact details of the consenting parent or responsible person, the intended purpose of travel (temporary or permanent), and a signed consent, supported by attached documents such as birth certificates and identity evidence.
- When it is used
- It is used when a child under 18 intends to travel to Australia and a non-accompanying parent or responsible person is required to give consent to the visa grant; it does not apply to Resident Return visa, Electronic Travel Authority or eVisitor applicants under 18.
