Thai Recognition

Scot Thai March 9, 2020 14:34

Does anyone know why the UK did not recognize domestic adoptions made in Thailand up until 2013? They do recognize them now if made after 2013. Problem is very bad for children adopted before 2013. Information on another country in a similar situation may help.

Hi Scot Thai, I have done a bit of research and the only thing I can find that may help is this: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2013/1801/made It's The Adoption (Recognition of Overseas Adoptions) Order 2013 and it looks like it is changes to the Adoption and Children Act made in 2002 http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2002/38/contents This may help - hope it does. Best wishes, Charlotte
