Travel Consent letter for child traveling with parent to Netherlands

score:3

Accepted answer

Some consulates do provide forms to fill in but here is a template from the Swedish ministry of Foreign Affairs. This should generally be fine for any country and since Sweden is also in the Schengen area the exact same rules apply than for the Netherlands.

While there is no such mention in the Netherlands VFS there is a specificity added in the Consulate of Austria page:

5.1. Minors (children below 18 years):

Birth certificate

Minors travelling alone or with only one parent:

Original passports of both parents (unless one parent has the sole custody or residence order for the child);

Proof of consent of parental authority or legal guardian

and also from the Netherlands Consular Services Page. You can certainly confirm directly with the consulate but I still think you won't need it if both of you are traveling with the child.
