The passport parental consent form, otherwise known as ‘Form DS-3053’, is used when a minor under the age of sixteen (16) is applying for a passport. This consent form should be used if  one of the minor’s parents or guardians cannot be present at the time that the passport is being executed. If the minor has only one parent or guardian present and this form has not been made available to the U.S. Embassy, U.S. Passport Agency, or the U.S. Consulate abroad, at which the minor is applying, they will be unable to receive a U.S. passport.
