My first post on this subject, am hoping someone will be able to point me in the right direction. I am a British citizen living and working in Thailand for a couple of years, aged 39, DH is 42, with DD aged 3 (she is our bio child).
We would like to adopt a child (for various reasons, its looking unlikely that i can conceive or carry a child to term again) whilst still living abroad. But I have no idea where to start, what the implications are for the child when we return back to the UK (is he/she a British citizen), what the legal implications/processes are, whether we have to be approved by UK authorities for adoption etc.
Can anyone help?
