Canadian Travel Document - Child

Canadian citizens under 16 must have a valid Canadian Travel Document to travel internationally. Child applications are different from adult applications and must follow specific requirements.

Key Requirements for a Child Travel Document Application

• A legal parent or guardian must apply on behalf of the child.

• There is no renewal process for child travel documents. A complete new application must be submitted each time.

• A guarantor is required to confirm the identity of the parent or guardian applying on the child’s behalf.

Guarantor Information

You must provide a qualified guarantor to apply for a new Canadian Travel Document for a child. The guarantor must:

• Have known the parent or guardian (the applicant) for at least two years

• Live in Canada or the United States

• Be able to communicate in English or French

Acceptable Guarantor Types:

1. Canadian Guarantor: The guarantor must hold a valid Canadian passport.

2. Professional Guarantor: The guarantor must be a member of a designated profession recognized by Passport Canada (e.g., doctor, dentist, lawyer, notary, etc.).

3. No Guarantor Available: If you cannot provide a guarantor, you must complete a Statutory Declaration in Lieu of Guarantor.
