A travel permit is written permission from your child’s supervising officer that authorizes them to travel from one state to another. Travel permits are required for juveniles on probation or parole who need to travel out-of-state for more than 24 hours if they were:
- Adjudicated or have deferred adjudications and are on supervision for one of the following:
- i. sex-related offenses;
- ii. violent offenses that have resulted in personal injury or death; or
- iii. offenses committed with a weapon;
- Travel permits are also required if your situation fits one of the following:
- i. state committed (on parole);
- ii. pending a request for transfer of supervision, and who are subject to the terms of the Compact;
- iii. returning to the state from which they were transferred for the purposes of visitation;
- iv. transferring to a subsequent state(s) with the approval of the original sending state; or
- v. transferred and the victim notification laws, policies and practices of the sending and/or receiving state require notification.
