Everything You Need to Know About the DS-3053 Form

What is Form DS-3053?
Form DS-3053 (2024-2025), Statement of Consent, is required when one parent or guardian cannot be present to apply for a child’s U.S. passport under age 16.

When do I need DS-3053 form?

When only one parent/guardian can go to the passport acceptance office.
If parents live in different states or countries and cannot attend together.
When one parent cannot attend due to work, travel, or custody arrangements.

Why is DS-3053 form critical?

Prevents parental disputes over a child’s travel documents.
Provides written, notarized proof of consent that carries legal weight.
Required under U.S. federal law — without it, the passport will not be issued.

What must the DS-3053 form include?

The absent parent’s personal information and signature (before a notary).
The child’s identifying information matching the passport application.
A clear photocopy of the ID used at notarization.
The notary’s seal and signature, confirming authenticity.

How long is it valid?

Only 90 days from notarization.
Families must coordinate so the DS-3053 and passport application are submitted together within this timeframe.

Tips for smooth filing:

Always attach the required ID copy of the non-appearing parent.
Double-check the 90-day notarization window.
Submit the original notarized form — photocopies are not accepted.
If abroad, visit a U.S. embassy or consulate to notarize the DS-3053.
