Can I take my children abroad if I am not a guardian?

For non-guardians to be taken out of the country, our country only requires relevant people with civil capacity to accompany them.

A minor traveling abroad needs the consent and accompaniment of his parents. If not accompanied by both or one of his parents, the parents should entrust someone else or the relevant organization to send someone to accompany them. Legally speaking, this is actually the case. The above is a temporary guardian designated by parents for their minor children during the trip, entrusted to supervise the minor children on their behalf. According to the regulations of some tourist destination countries, notarization procedures are required before entrustment.

Based on this and combined with some actual conditions, some new models for minors from mainland China to go abroad have been formed. The main types are as follows:

1. Going abroad collectively with schools. Whenever summer vacation approaches, some students in primary and secondary schools sign up one after another to go abroad with their school teachers for "summer camp" activities. The countries visited are mainly Asian and European countries. Some primary and middle school students are led by school teachers to participate in some subject competitions abroad, such as the Olympic Mathematics Competition, because they specialize in a certain subject.

2. Go abroad with the team to participate in artistic performances. The process of global integration includes the mutual exchange of Chinese and foreign cultures. For this reason, going abroad to perform theatrical performances with a literary and artistic team from mainland China is also one of the main types of minors going abroad. Its performance forms generally include "acrobatics" and "dance".

3. Travel abroad in a group with relatives and friends. Some parents are unable to go out due to busy work, so they entrust relatives and friends to take their children to travel abroad with tour groups.

4. Live abroad with your father or mother. Some parents of minors are temporarily separated or divorced, with one parent living in mainland China and the other living abroad. After negotiation or judgment, the child will live abroad with the father or mother.

5. Settling abroad with the adoptive parents.

Legal basis: Article 16 of the "Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Minors" stipulates: "If parents are unable to perform their guardianship duties for minors due to going out to work or for other reasons, they should entrust someone to Other adults with custodial capacity shall act as guardians on their behalf.”
