So my wife and I have today started talking about adoption. She is from Vietnam (35yo), and I England(43yo). We have been living in Hanoi for 3 years but are considering moving to Qatar for a few years. If were to decide to adopt a child from somewhere such as India, how does the Hague Convention affect us? There is a good chance we will choose to move back to England within 3 or 4 years, will the child have an Indian passport, or Vietnamese? British? Or if we proceed with this from Qatar then a Qatar passport? I understand the overall aims of the convention is positive, though if there are 1000s of kids who need parents, and 1000s of willing parents around the world I wonder whether there is a positive overall impact. I've also read about the administrative nightmares of potential adopters who are based in the UK, - trying to do it from abroad might be best avoided. What would I reap by choosing this path (avoiding the Hague Convention)? d.
