Dear Forum visitors,

thanks for reading my message. I am Russian, by citizenship. But live and work abroad for several years. And now i am in Kenya, AFRICA.

Already 2 years i am dreaming of adoption of international child, African or Caribbean. I know that it should be Intercountry agency who service Russian citizens for these needs,

but i can't fine any, only American Agency and UK. I do not know what to do, how to start the procedure.

Pls. help me with your advice,

The adoption authority for Russia is:

Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation

Department of State Policy for the Protection of Children’s Right

Address: 51 Lysinovskaya St.

Moscow, 115998

It should be able to answer your questions about how to adopt a child as a Russian citizen living overseas.
