Do Cambodian kids need their own passport?

If you were on a plane or cruise ship and the guys in turbans wanna round up all the bad westerners as hostages for potential execution then having a Khmer ppt would be beneficial. Tho I don't think it would do the likes of sciaroni much good. The Taliban would think he was having them on.

I'm not getting my kids ID cards. it's a retarded system that sees the citizen having to go to the same sangkat for anything and everything.

Um..buying land ?

Mum have to put fingerprint in child passport, fathers fingers are no good for that.

But in reference to kids getting their own> they dont need Anything from the parents at all?
Thailand and US, both parents need be there till they are (under 15 for thai and from 15-20 need both parents authorization letter, under 16 for usa) and if both cant, one can submit a notarized authorization letter.
Just spoke with a friend who recently got their kid his pp, his wife and kid went to the PP office without her husband, took kids birth cert, family book and her ID card...no requirement for the father to be present.

wow;
seems like it makes it easy for human trafficking if only mom needs be there.
thats the reason us and thailand want both parents there or at least a letter.
I hvae heard in thailand that many have posted on tv, that they needed a letter if they were traveling with their kid and mom wasn't there. I never had any problem traveling alone with my daughter when she was young.

Thanks all

PS having dual passports is always a HUGE +

There's a requirement to get parts of some PP applications signed with a witness (accountant, lawyer, doctor, etc...), which is of course completely fool-proof.
Some countries, I believe the USA is one, require you to have documents to prove that a child traveling without both parents is not being abducted/ trafficked etc.

I don't think so. At least I've never been asked to provide any documents. A friend did recently get stranded in Qatar with her kid but I think that was airline regulations rather than a US requirement.

If you had dual citizenship would you not want to have passports from both countries?

Aside from the ease of travel to ASEAN countries, having a passport can only be a good thing in a country that still relies heavily on hard copies of everything due to a lack of computerised systems for record keeping.
