The U.S. Department of State cannot predict when Montenegro will have procedures in place and be ready to process Convention [[adoption]] cases following the Convention’s entry into force for Montenegro. Under U.S. law, the U.S. Central Authority will also need to evaluate whether those procedures conform to the standards established by the Convention and the IAA before adoptions may take place between the United States and Montengro under the Convention.
