To take a Minor child abroad with intent to reside abroad without the consent of the non custodial parent would constitute kidnapping. A vacation is not a change of residence and therefore is not disallowed. Permission should be obtained from the non custodial parent in writing to prevent any misunderstandings later.

Yes, but the primary resident parent should keep a copy of the orders for the police to see so that they are not put into the position of determining whose telling the truth. This also applies to the non-residential parent. Keep a copy in case the other parent is trying to interfere with their time. This is a common practice, especially during Summer extended visitation, when a trip is planned and the other parents claims they are kidnapping the child.
