The Informal Custody Agreement is commonly used in the Philippines when separating or divorced parents need to establish clear guidelines for their child's care without immediate court intervention. This document type provides a structured yet flexible framework for custody arrangements while adhering to Philippine family law principles. It typically includes detailed provisions for visitation schedules, decision-making processes, and parental responsibilities, all while prioritizing the child's welfare as required by the Family Code of the Philippines. The agreement is particularly useful in situations where parties maintain an amicable relationship and can cooperate in their child's best interests, though it can later be formalized through court proceedings if needed. While not as legally binding as a court order, the Informal Custody Agreement serves as valuable documentation of the parties' intentions and agreements regarding their child's care.
