International Child Custody

In answer your question, you might want to go the State Department web site, to view the rules about traveling abroad with minor children. 1. You will need a sworn affidavit under oath from the other parent to allow the travel 2. A valid passport for the child as well as your own 3. The trial court will be insistent that the country you are traveling to is part of The Hague convention and a member country to assist in the event of international child kidnapping. The divorce trial court has authority to prohibit travel to countries with minor children where the court believes the child may be endangered or where the country traveled to is not part of The Hague Convention.        You also indicate you are going through a divorce and plan to remarry. You should be aware that if divorced in Wisconsin, there is a prohibition on getting remarried anywhere in the world for a period of 6 months and if you violate that law, your marriage would be null and void.
