Republic of Georgia Adoption
This program is: open
The Republic of Georgia adoption program was overhauled in 2003 and has remained stable since that time, although much of the process is unregulated. In 2002, U.S. citizens adopted approximately 56 children from Georgia. Children available for adoption include boys and girls, ages 6 months and older, healthy and special needs. These children reside in orphanages and foster care.
See other Georgia2 Adoption Agencies.
Travel required: One trip, both parents must travel (if married couple); in-country stay is approx. two weeks; after both parents meet the child, one may leave while the other remains.
Singles accepted: Yes.
Other: Children must remain listed for six months on a registry giving preference to in-country adopters before becoming eligible for adoption by foreigners. Once children are identified for adoption, they are often placed in foster care.
