Cost of a Power of Attorney for a Child in Ukraine (Kyiv & Region)
As the holiday season approaches, parents often visit a notary office. If a minor (under 16) travels abroad with one parent or accompanied by a grandmother, coach, or group leader, a notarized consent is required — what people commonly refer to as a power of attorney for a child. One of the first questions is: what is the cost of this document in Kyiv and the region?
What makes up the total cost?
The final amount is not fixed and includes three mandatory components. Notary services: legal review of documents, drafting an accurate statement with destination and dates, and the notarization procedure itself. Notary form: the document is printed on a secure, strict-accountability form. Registry entry: fee for entering the notarial act into the Unified Register of Powers of Attorney. In Kyiv, processing takes 15–20 minutes when documents are prepared in advance.
What documents should you bring?
For fast processing, the consenting parent needs: 1) original passport and tax ID (TIN), 2) original birth certificate of the child, 3) passport details of the accompanying person (full name, passport series and number, address). If the child travels with one parent, the other parent's notarized consent is not required for the Ukrainian border, but border guards at the destination country may request it — it is best to prepare it in advance.
How to save time and money?
Verify all details before your visit: exact travel dates, list of countries, passport details of the child and the accompanying person. A mistake in a single letter can cause a refusal at the border. Prepare copies of documents in advance — this will speed up the process.
