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 2008 , U.S. citizens adopted approximately 7 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.

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.
