How many kids can a single man (Indian, 30 years ) adopt in India?
Find answers to your legal question.





How many kids can a single man (Indian, 30 years ) adopt in India?

Can you adopt only one child at a time?
If you can only adopt male child as a single man, can you adopt a female child after marriage?
Is there a restriction on the total number/gender of children an indian can adopt from India?

Sorry too many questions. Just wanted to know. Thanks in advance

I know people who have adopted from India. Two couples were Indian; one was a single woman. There is no law on the number that you can adopt, but there is a tradition that no more than 3 unless it includes siblings. Also, in India, it is not an adoption, but guardianship. Once you and child have arrived in the US, you can then legally adopt the child. Also, as far as I know, you have to actually be living in India for an extensive period before you can adopt unless you choose to take a child with medical issues. There are some international adoption agencies that may have some arrangement for exceptions.

I don't know the rules for single man adoptions. Sorry.

BTW, before anybody latches on to that one, permanent guardianship does not give you and the child the same rights as adoption. For instance, my neighbors could take their son to Canada for a vacation, but would not have been able to bring him back to the US. This is because he did not have a US passport. Today, of course, if you complete an adoption, the child is automatically a US citizen.

I have to answer with a question. Why, as a single man, are you wanting to adopt multiple children? This questions seems either suspicious or perverse.
