Question: I am 17 years old , do I legally have to have my mothers consent to leave to another state? What age can you travel to another state without parents permission?

Answer:

This answer is provided for information purposes only. You should contact an attorney for specific questions pertaining to travel within the United States without parents.
 
Due to the increasing incidents of child abductions in disputed custody cases and as possible victims of child pornography, Customs and Border Protection (CBP) strongly recommends that unless the child is accompanied by both parents, the adult have a note from the child's other parent (or, in the case of a child traveling with grandparents, uncles or aunts, sisters or brothers, friends, or in groups, a note signed by both parents).
