The travel permit is an authorization for a person under 18 years old to exit from Argentina without both or one of his/her parents.
If the minor will travel alone or accompanied by somebody other than his/her parents, the permit must be signed by both parents. If he/she will travel with one parent, it must be signed by the other parent.
The travel permit can be signed both at the Argentine Embassy in Sweden and before a local notary public.
Exceptions: Argentines with residency abroad and foreigners that will not stay longer than 90 days in Argentina do not require travel permit, as long as he/she returns straight to the country where he/she resides.
