In regard to the original question, a minor who is travelling with one parent should have a notarized letter of consent from the non-travelling parent, in addition to a passport and birth certificate. A notarized letter of consent should also be part of a petition for permanent residency, as well as an application for naturalization. In the event that the non-travelling parent is deceased or missing, a death certificate or police document would be considered adequate proof. In cases where a former spouse has been stripped of parental rights, court documents should be produced. As always, any foreign-language document must be accompanied by a certified translation. Enforcement is inconsistent but the chances that it will be an issue increase as one progresses toward naturalization.

FYI, "fiancé" is the masculine form and "fiancée" is the feminine form.

Also FYI, many FSU women would consider it to be a great insult that they are referred to as being "imported." If you are wise, you will delete this term from your active vocabulary.

I don't know the regulations regarding Russian travel with children, but for a tourist visa to the USA, families can travel as a group to this country.  Don't know if the father needs to be contacted to obtain his permission, but if they have been to Turkey previously, I would think it wouldn't be necessary.  Owning night clubs could be legitimate.  It would be easy to find other women there especially if you are the owner.

Gung hay fat choy (Feb. 16).

It seems that Russian laws pertaining to this subject are a little confusing, as a woman can take here children out of the country for a holiday without any Fathers written consent, BUT, the father should have written consent from the mother to do the same. (he can be refused exit from Russia if checks are made).
However, IF the child is being removed from Ru on a more permanent basis, by either parent, written consent is required, unless, one of the parents has legally denounced his/her parenthood, or been removed from parenthood in a Ru court.
A slightly different law applies when one or both parents are not the biological parents.
HTH

Agree that it is a convoluted topic whenever visas, immigration, and children are involved. You seem to be referring to Russia’s exit requirements, but it doesn’t mean a mother can take her child wherever she likes for a holiday without consent of the other parent, because when exiting Russia, there needs to be a destination and each country has its own entry requirements.

For example, here’s what you are looking at for a Schengen visa:

The minor’s birth certificate
The application form has to be signed by both parents
In cases where one parent has full custody over the child, the family court order has to be attached.
Certified copies of ID/passport of both parents.
The notarized parental authorization signed by both parents or guardians is attached if the minor is to be travelling alone.

Of course I was, its what the OP wished to find further knowledge about...

You forgot about what happens once they exit!)))

While I am not 100% certain to the rules regarding to Russia I understand that between Ukraine and Russia the laws are parallel.

If the child is only written in the mothers passport, and this is so noted, the mother can move as she wishes with 'sole custody' of her sproglet. Another step further a mother can and has in the past obtained sole custody of her child that she has raised and the father in EVERY respect ignored, both in Russia and Ukraine. This is again noted in the mothers passport and now the childs.

In my step sons passport it is clear his mother has sole control. Having said this Nicolas often spends time with his biological father. But he has zero control over his mothers choices. As other posters have noted there are numerous red flags in this thread and I would suggest to Omega that he carefully and coldly examine the goals of the woman he is communicating with.

For clarities sake Andrew lives along the Baltic and Steve has a property in Transnistria.
