A single status certificate, also known as a certificate of non-impediment to marriage abroad, confirms that there are no objections to a proposed marriage or civil partnership. This certificate is sometimes required when planning to marry in a foreign country.

Canada does not issue certificates of non-impediment. Instead, it issues a statement in lieu of a certificate of non-impediment to marriage abroad.

Some countries require this document to be issued in Canada and will not accept one from a Canadian embassy, high commission, or consulate abroad. If this applies to you, ensure you submit your request well in advance of your travel dates.

For more information regarding the single status certificate or the statement in lieu of a certificate of non-impediment to marriage abroad, please email us at info@redstonenotary.ca or call us directly 6474026241

Travel Consent Letter Canada

How to Write a Consent Letter for a Child Traveling Abroad

When preparing a consent letter for a child traveling abroad, there are no strict guidelines for its content and format. However, certain elements should be included to ensure clarity and acceptance by authorities. Here’s a comprehensive guide on what to include in your consent letter:

Key Information to Include

  1. Child’s Name: Clearly state the full name of the child traveling.
  2. Parents or Guardians’ Details: Include the names and contact information of the parents or guardians giving consent.
  3. Accompanying Person’s Information: Mention the name and relationship of the person accompanying the child.
  4. Travel Details: Provide information on the destination, duration of the trip, and any relevant travel dates.

Situational Variations

  • Single Consent Letter: If neither parent is accompanying the child, both can sign a single consent letter, or each parent can sign separate letters.
  • Multiple Children: Children from the same family traveling together can be listed on one letter.
  • Separate Travel: It is recommended to write separate letters for children who will travel separately for any part of the trip.
  • Legal Consultation: For letters without specific dates or for frequent cross-border trips, it is advisable to consult a lawyer.

  • Sample Consent Letter: [Link to Sample Consent Letter]
  • Interactive Form: [Link to Interactive Form for Writing a Consent Letter]

These resources provide templates and guidelines to help you write a detailed and accurate consent letter tailored to your specific situation.

Signing the Consent Letter

The consent letter should be signed by:

  • Parents in Marital or Common Law Relationships: Parents who are married or in a common law relationship, and are not accompanying the child.
  • Separated or Divorced Parents: Parents who have custody, decision-making responsibility, or guardianship of the child (specific to Alberta and British Columbia). A court order or agreement may dictate who needs to sign the consent letter.
  • Child Welfare Agency: If the child is in temporary care, the letter should be signed by the appropriate child welfare agency representative.
  • Surviving Parent: If one parent is deceased, the surviving parent should sign the letter, and the child should carry a copy of the deceased parent’s death certificate.

Apostille Services in Canada

Canada is now a party to the Apostille Convention, simplifying the authentication process for documents intended for use in other member countries. With this new development, the requirement for legalization is removed for documents being used in countries that are part of the convention.

What is an Apostille?

An apostille is a certificate that authenticates the origin of a public document. In Canada, documents authenticated by a competent authority will be issued an apostille certificate in the form of an “allonge,” which is a separate document securely affixed to the underlying authenticated document.

Benefits of the Apostille Convention:

  • Simplified Process: Eliminates the need for multiple steps of legalization.
  • Global Acceptance: Recognized by all member countries of the Hague Convention.
  • Secure Authentication: Ensures that documents are securely and reliably authenticated for international use.

If you need to authenticate documents for use in a country that is a member of the Apostille Convention, contact us for efficient and reliable apostille services.

Let us help you navigate the new, simplified process for document authentication with the Apostille Convention.

Notary and Apostille Services by Qualified Notary Public Ajmal Rasouli

 

We offer comprehensive document services in any language, valid for use both inside and outside Canada.

What is Apostille or Legalization?

An Apostille stamp authenticates documents in Hague Convention member countries, confirming their genuineness. As Canada isn’t part of the Hague Convention, we use a process called Legalization.

Legalization in Canada:

When presenting Canadian-issued documents overseas, they must be notarized, authenticated by the Government of Canada, and legalized by the destination country’s consulates and embassies.

Types of Documents We Legalize:

Our experienced team handles various documents, such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, and educational certificates, in any language.

Foreign Mission and Consulate Requirements:

Our services comply with legalization requirements of foreign missions, embassies, and consulates in Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, and Washington D.C.

Korean Consulate Legalization in Toronto:

For Korea-bound university or college documents, they must be notarized by a Canadian registered with The Law Society of Ontario—our firm, Redstone Legal Services, meets this criterion.

China Embassy or Consulate Legalization in Toronto:

Documents for the Chinese embassy or consulate need notarization, authentication by Canadian Foreign Affairs, and adherence to Chinese legal standards.

Indian Embassy or Consulate in Toronto:

Indian institutions accept Canadian notarized documents, provided they are properly notarized by an Authorized Canadian Official—we offer compliant notary services.

Comprehensive Notarization Services:

We meet notarization standards for all consulates and embassies in Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal, British Columbia.
