Bringing kid's friends- need form notarized?

[daisy2000]

O.k. - I am really last minute with this, we are just a few hours from leaving for our trip, and now I'm stressed out! I didn't thoroughly read the permission form that the parents of our kids' friends need to sign. Now I see that it needs to be notarized. So, my friend who's a commissioner of the court signed it but didn't have his seal with him. Is it necessary to have the seal?

I would certainly think so....isn't the purpose of getting something notarized having it signed and stamped ...? But hard to tell how DCL would handle it, maybe a call into DCL would help put you at ease....

Good luck on your trip and have fun!

We have taken our friends' son with us a few times and did have the form notarized. We even had a typed letter giving us permission to seek medical care for him that his parents signed and had notarized.

Don't remember if DCL inspected the form or not but I felt better having it notarized as instructed on the documents.

What form did you use? We might be taking DS's friend along and I was wondering about this.

I think you need it notarized just to protect yourself also, even if Disney didnt require it. Good luck!

It is supposed to be notarized. Part of the notarization is the seal. Now, whether or not they accept it without the seal , I don't know...but officially they require it.
Disney has a form that they send to you (to answer the other question below.)
