In addition to U.S. immigration requirements, you must also meet the following requirements in order to adopt a child from Taiwan:

Residency

There are currently no residency requirements that prospective adoptive parents must meet in order to adopt an orphan from Taiwan.

Age of Adopting Parents

Prospective adoptive parents (PAPs) must be at least twenty years older than the child to be adopted. If married, one spouse must be at least twenty years older than the child to be adopted and the other spouse must be at least 16 years older than the child to be adopted.

Marriage

A married person who adopts a child shall do so jointly with his/her spouse. Single individuals may adopt from Taiwan.

Income

Prospective adoptive parents must have a stable residence, legitimate employment and sufficient financial means.

Other

There is no official policy or law prohibiting adoptions by LGBT individuals. Taiwan law does not recognize marriage between partners of the same sex.
