horsegal Posted January 1, 2017 #1 Share Posted January 1, 2017 This is probably a silly question but I don't want to get turned away at the port. We got a passport for my one year old but is there any reason I would need to also have his birth certificate? Thanks!

Dulcibella Posted January 2, 2017 #3 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Are both parents travelling ? otherwise you might need some documentation from the other parent allowing travel. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted January 2, 2017 #4 Share Posted January 2, 2017 If you have the passport, you need nothing else for any child under 16. No "photo" id needed. If you have no passport, the BC is all that's needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horsegal Posted January 2, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Both parents are traveling, and we all have the same last name. Just wanted to make sure we wouldn't need the birth certificate to prove he is our son. When I flew with him by myself across the country I was really surprised I didn't need his birth certificate or anything to show that he was my son, it actually really bothers me that they don't require it.
