Here are a few of the basic requirements:
- Must be between the ages of 25 and 65 to adopt
- Married couples must be married for at least three years
- Single female applicants on a case by case basis
- More than 21 years older than the child
- Ability to live in-country for 7-15 months or until the completion of the adoption process
- Process is the same for former Kenyan Nationals that are US citizens seeking a relative adoption
The following are prohibited by law from adopting a child in Kenya:
1. A person who is not of sound mind
2. A person who has been charged or convicted previously of child abuse offense; or is a
homosexual
3. Joint applicants who are not married to each other
4. A sole foreign male applicant
If living in the US, you must use one of these agencies to adopt a child in Kenya, there are NO "independent" adoptions allowed.
So if this looks good and you can meet the requirements .... now you are thinking .... What NOW, How can WE adopt from Kenya?
