TL;DR
If a child is not traveling with both parents (e.g. with just one parent or an accompanying adult), you need a notarized parental consent for the child's international travel — a specific document, not a general power of attorney.
What the community said
It matters exactly who the child is traveling with and what nationality the child holds — this determines which document is required: specifically a consent for international travel, not a general power of attorney.

If a child is traveling with an accompanying adult and not both parents, you specifically need a notarized parental consent, not a standard power of attorney — these are different documents.

A 12-year-old listed in a parent's passport may still need their own separate passport for the flight — this should be checked before departure, not resolved after arrival in Nha Trang.
