Adoption

[CaptainFly]

I am married to a Thai now for 7 years and her/our daughter is now 12.  She is in the top of her class and starting advanced classes next year in one of the private schools.  I want to adopt her so she can go to America to do her senior year in prep for an American University. 

Does anyone have some info on this as I have found I need to go to Bangkok because CM only does Thai to Thai adoptions.  Using a law firm will be too expensive and for sure there are many readers that have done this or are in the process. 

 

 

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

I have asked my wife and she agrees that you could do it with no problems,assuming that both your wife and the father are in agreement of course, but yes you do have to do it in Bangkok because that is where the main adoption center is.

You can do it yourself but it would be much easier and quicker using a lawyer, and she recommends you do.....but that goes without saying of course as that is her interest....lol

Best thing to do is to contact the DSDW office. Please see my previous post on this topic:
