I’m on vacation in Türkiya and wonder: what happens when let’s say a pregnant woman goes on vacation and for whatever reason gives birth there.

How can she take the newborn back to her country? Need to prepare all the papers in the embassy or there’s some special procedure for such cases so the paper work can be done in a country she resides normally?

      Two major assumptions to be countered.

      1. premature births can happen way before 36 weeks

      2. not all travel is optional vacation

      Even in six months pregnancy it happens that people are born due to reasons. Also my wife was able to fly basically until the end. Doctor had nothing against, airline didn’t really care. It was all Schengen flights tho.

      may

      advise

      No requirement there. Just recommendations, and potential at that.

      who tf travels on vacation when they’re so close to labor?

      People with poor decision-making skills.
