Inter-country adoption

If you wish to apply to adopt a child from another country and you live within the Falkirk Council area, you will need to have a home study completed by a social worker, outlining your circumstances. You will also need to be approved as prospective inter-country adopters by the local authority adoption panel.

You may be charged for this service, depending on your income and capital. There is a charge of £3,000 to meet the cost of this service. We will take into account your ability to pay this charge.

For more information on this please contact the Fostering and Adoption team using the details shown.
