I want to go to Taiwan with a minor child, we have different last names, will there be problems at the border and what documents are needed?

Yes, issues due to this can indeed arise when leaving Russia at border control. The fact is that border officers need to be sure that you are not taking someone else's child out of Russia and that all your documents are in order, with no bans on the minor child's departure. But, in principle, this issue is easily resolved with supporting documents. Therefore, take the child's birth certificate (original) on the trip, and a document confirming your name change: marriage certificate or name change certificate. This will be 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 further confirm. Also, proof of relationship can be the inclusion of children's information in your passport; such a section exists even on page four of the new-style international passport. However, these details are not filled in by default, so be sure to check if they are completed in your documents before the trip.

And just in case, we also remind you that under Russian law, in general, there is no need to obtain a notarized power of attorney (permission) from the other parent for one parent to travel abroad with a child. A power of attorney is only needed if the other parent has filed a ban on the child's removal abroad, and they may refuse to give this temporary permission through a notary, in which case nothing can be done even by law. At the same time, before the trip, always check the entry requirements for the country, as some countries set additional requirements for child travel documents. For example, obtaining a Schengen visa may require a notarized power of attorney.
