If not, it is necessary to present the written consent of the parent who cannot be present. The consent must be issued within 6 months of the passport application and dully legalized by public authority or via gov.gr.
In case of a minor born out of wedlock that has been recognized voluntarily or judicially by the father, the presence of both parents is required. If one of the two parents is unable to attend the appointment, his / her written consent is required, validated by a Greek public authority or via gov.gr and issued within 6 months of the passport application
