# The common practice is that woman do not perform [[hatarat nedarim]] and rely on the Kol Nidrei said prior to [[Yom Kippur]]. Woman may appoint her husband to do Hatarat Nedarim on her behalf and it is effective, yet one shouldn't convene a bet din specially for this purpose.<ref>Rav Schachter in a shiur entitled [http://www.yutorah.org/lectures/lecture.cfm/818020/Rabbi_Hershel_Schachter/Inyonei_Rosh_Hashana "Inyonei Rosh Hashana" (min 30) on yutorah.org]</ref>

A support for this ruling is Rabbi Akiva Eiger (comments on S"A YD 228:1) who writes that while relatives can serve as a Bet DIn for Hatarat Nedarim, a woman can't serve on such a Bet Din. </ref>
