For a child in Finland, a child of 17 years old must obtain his own passport.

Finland, as a member of the Schengen Agreement, the rules for crossing the borders of the Schengen zone, including in relation to travel documents. Until recently, children under the age of 18 did not have to get a separate passport and fit in the passport of their parents. Today's rules provide for the receipt of a child's passport by a child starting from the age of 14, that is parallel to obtaining a general passport.

So, according to the Russian legislation, every child of a Russian citizen can issue a passport for the child from the moment of his birth . This the document is no different from the adult . The difference is that a separate passport does not give the child the right to independently cross the state borders - it must necessarily accompany adults . If a Russian citizen under 18 leaves the country with a single parent or independently - an additional copy of a notarized authorization from the parent (s) in Russian is required. .

A foreign passport is issued for the child by one of the parents or legal representatives at the place of residence of the applicant submitting the application or the legal representative. A child's registration does not matter at that.
