# The common practice is that woman do not perform [[hatarat nedarim]] and rely on the Kol Nidrei said prior to [[Yom Kippur]]. A 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 40-3) on yutorah.org]. see also [http://www.dailyhalacha.com/displayRead.asp?readID=375 Rabbi Eli Mansour] who writes that although women are required to make Hatarat Nedarim, customarily a husband represents his wife when he stands before the Bet Din for Hatarat Nedarim. In fact, the text that we use explicitly mentions that one seeks absolution of his own vows as well as the vows of his wife. Furthermore, women customarily attend the Kol Nidreh service on Yom Kippur, which is also effective in annulling one’s vows.</ref>
