Which countries allow you to adopt more then one child at once?
|
I'm looking into international adoption, and my husband and I are thinking of adopting 2 at once. I know almost all countries allow you to adopt more then on in sibling groups. I know Haiti and China will allow you two adopt two unrelated children at the same time, but are there any others?

I believe Ethiopia and Liberia also allow adoption of unrelated children. In Africa, there is often a "village raising a child" culture, so neighbors are very close and supportive of one another, including children. I am acquainted with a few families who adopted unrelated children from the same orphanage due to those bonds between children. In those cases, it's worked out well. But it may not be a good idea to adopt two unrelated children that have never met or have no relationship prior to the adoption.
There are also many sibling groups available for adoption overseas. A reputable agency will not split up sibling groups. |

I think you should really research better it is a well known fact that China WILL NOT allow you to adopt two unrelated children at once unless they are twins and this is EXTREMELY rare in China.
Some countries will allow the adoption of two unrelated or a sibling group of older children...usually over the age of six. |

China will not, its not because of the agencies its because of the Chinese Government. People in my church have adopted 2 girls from China, not at the same time, 3 years in between. they said they would have loved to adopt 2 at the same time but the Chinese Government said no they don't do that.
Russia, Ukraine and Ethiopia do however
good luck!,
