Yes, questions due to a different last name with the child can actually arise when leaving the Russian Federation at border control. The fact is that border guards monitor whether you are taking your child out of the Russian Federation and whether all your documents are in order, and among other things, there are no restrictions on the departure of a minor child. But, in general, this issue is easily resolved with supporting documents. To do this, take the child's birth certificate (original) and a document confirming your last name change: marriage certificate or name change certificate. This is enough for border guards to verify that you are the child's mother. In rare cases, they may additionally ask the child who you are to them to further verify. Also, proof of relationship can be the inclusion of information about children in your passport; this option even exists on the fourth page of the new type of international passport. True, this information is not filled in by default, so be sure to check if it is filled in your documents before the trip.
And just in case, we also remind you that according to the laws of the Russian Federation, in general, there is no need to obtain a notarized power of attorney (permission) from the second parent for one parent to travel abroad with a child. A power of attorney is needed only if the second parent has filed a ban on the child's departure abroad, and he may also refuse to give this temporary permission through a notary, and in such a case nothing can be done even by law. At the same time, before the trip, be sure to check the entry requirements for the country, as some countries impose additional requirements for the child's authorization documents. For example, obtaining a Schengen visa may require a notarized power of attorney.
