You must have certain documents for your child to travel with GOL. We do not transport children under 8 years of age unaccompanied by a guardian. If the child is between 8 years of age and 15 years and 11 months of age, he or she must have an identification document such as a passport, ID card, or birth certificate (for children up to 12 years of age). All documents may be original or certified copies, in addition to travel authorization: - Authorization from either parent (mother or father) or legal guardian, by means of a public deed or private document with a signature recognized by similarity or authenticity OR; - Valid passport with express authorization for the minor to travel unaccompanied OR; - Judicial authorization.

There are no penalties for changing airline tickets for infants aged 0 to 2 years. Therefore, on domestic flights within Brazil where infants travel free, there will be no fare difference. On international flights, where infants pay 10% of the fare, there may be a higher or lower fare difference depending on the new fare available on the date of the change, in addition to any differences in boarding fees that may be adjusted and applied to infants traveling abroad.

To change airline tickets for children aged 2 to 12 years, a change fee will be charged according to the rules of the original fare purchased. Furthermore, there may be a higher or lower fare difference depending on the fare available on the date of the change and also because the discount for this type of passenger no longer applies. In the case of changes, the fare rules and discounts of the new fare purchased apply.

You must present the original death certificate of the deceased parent if the child is traveling with only one parent. If you do not have the original document, you must request judicial authorization, as it is not possible to present a copy of the death certificate.

On domestic and international flights operated by Gol, children aged 2 to 12 years old pay the same fare as an adult. Lap infants, aged 0 to 2 years old, travel free on domestic flights operated by Gol and sit on the lap of a responsible adult. On international flights, they pay 10% of the adult fare and sit on the lap of a responsible adult. Check more information about boarding children and babies here.

Children under 2 years old can travel for free, as long as they are seated on the lap of a responsible adult aged 18 or older. In the case of twins or triplets, one adult is required per child. Newborns may only travel after 7 days of life. Children between 2 and 16 years old must be accompanied by a responsible adult or have the Voe Junto Accompaniment contracted with GOL. Teenagers over 16 years old may travel alone without parental or guardian authorization.
 
To board with minors, parents or guardians must present a ReaL ID, birth certificate or passport (original or certified copy). For the Blue Passport, proof of relationship with the responsible adult is required. Judicial authorization is not required if the accompanying adult is over 18 and can prove kinship up to the third degree (siblings, uncles/aunts, or grandparents).
 
If the child is accompanied by someone who is not a relative up to the third degree, the following documents must be presented:

• Real ID or a valid national passport
• Written authorization from the parent or legal guardian;
• Original documents of both the child and the accompanying adult. 

To validate the signature on the written authorization, an original document of the parent or legal guardian must be presented.
 
Judicial authorization with a digital signature is accepted for unaccompanied minors traveling on domestic and international flights operated by GOL. If the required documentation is not presented, the minor may only board if the legal guardian is present at check-in.
