Adoption law plays a significant role in every adoption whether it is a domestic child adoption,
an international child adoption, a step-parent adoption or any other
type of adoption.
The easiest way to view state child adoption law is on the Adoption Services link State
Adoption Laws.
Note that in every domestic child adoption you will have to meet the requirements of the state(s) involved as well as the Interstate
Compact Act and the Indian child Welfare Act. In an international adoption must meet the laws of your state of residence,
the U.S. and foreign governments and the Hague Convention. To view a comprehensive list of child adoption laws please visit our website ChildAdoptionLaws.com.
