Different countries do it in different ways. In the US, only Congress can do it- but the Constitution doesn't specify exactly how, so it's always been done basically like passing a law. In countries that have a monarch, like Britain or Japan (before World War II), that monarch has the sole power to declare war, but they usually consult their advisors before doing so.
