Children under age 16 cannot apply for a passport by themselves.
Both parents/guardians must appear in person with the child and provide consent, authorizing passport issuance to the child.

In certain countries, a DS-3053 must be notarized at a U.S. embassy or consulate and cannot be notarized by a local notary public. The document is only valid for 90 days after date of signature.
If the child only has one parent/guardian, evidence of sole authority to apply for the child must be submitted with the application in the form of a:

Photocopies and notarized copies are unacceptable
