No. That would be considered parental abduction or kidnapping depending upon mitigating circumstances. Nevertheless, both are felonies and if the child is removed from the US it is considered a federal felony. The parent abductor would be expedited back to the US to stand trial for numerous criminal offenses.
Not legally, however it happens everyday. In some countries it is very difficult to get the child returned especially if the other parent is a citizen of the country that they flee to with the minor child .
No, not without possibly facing kidnapping charges. Any time a non-custodial parent takes a child across state lines of the child's legal residence, it can only be done without repercussion with the court's approval and that often needs the permission and cooperation of the custodial parent.
Another Perspective
Such strict sanctions are generally not imposed on a loving parent who is simply separated from their child by reason of a divorce from the other parent. If the out of state visit is of short duration such as visiting a relative for the weekend or a trip to the beach or other vacation, the non-custodial parent should notify the custodial parent where they will be and how to contact them in an emergency. There should be an atmosphere of cooperation between the parents in order to minimize the stress imposed on all the parties involved. If there is no court order against removing the child from the state under any circumstances then it can be done within reason. If you are unsure, check the divorce decree and visitation order, visit the court and speak with an advocate or call your attorney if you have further questions.
No as both signatures are required
Not legally.
yes
No the custodial parent has to have either the courts permission or the non-custodians permission.
No, a non custodial parent can not take a child out of state without the custodial parents permission. The non custodial parent could be charged with kidnapping if charges are brought against them.
can't with the permission of the other parent or the court.
No, the non custodial parent cannot give permission to have a friend look after their child and non custodial means you have no custody rights so the permission should be granted by the parent that has custodial rights.AnswerIf you are the parent with legal custody you do not need the non-custodial parent's permission to allow your friend to watch your child. The parent who has legal custody has both the right and the authority to make that decision.
No, you need both his and the courts consent.

If a custodial parent can take a child out of the country on vacation without telling the non-custodial parent will depend on the court order and the laws in the state they live in. Many states will want the custodial parent to get a notarized document from the non-custodial parent stating they are giving their permission for the child to leave the country.
No, the custodial parent must give written a agreement which contains all pertinent information including the date the child/children will leave and the date they will return, how and when the non-custodial parent should stay in contact, and so forth. If a non-custodial parent removes a child/children from ANY place w/o the knowledge and/or permission of the custodial parent they are committing "parental kidnapping" and may be subject to criminal prosecution and other penalties.
By law, you must both go up to the location where they will issue a passport and both parents must sign a statement saying it is okay. If you have documentation that shows you are the custodial parent, you can have your child "red flagged" with the government and this way if he were to try to get a passport for your child they would have to notify you and then you can stop it. In the US the non-custodial parent can leave if they choose, they cannot however take a minor child with them unless a court rules otherwise. • This depends on your custody agreement, but I'm fairly certain a non-custodial parent needs permission. Just like a custodial parent will need permission depending on what the custody agreement states. I do know, however, that a custodial parent can get a passport without the permission of the non-custodial parent if he/she meets certain requirements. is that parent's name the only one on the birth cirtificate? Does that parent have sole LEGAL custody?
Not without permission of the judge/court where the custodial order was issued.
