Adopting an adult from Other country

[Dan92]

Hi
I have friend DENY who wants to adopt a boy who is 27 years old and he is from india but both are leaving in Uk. they known each other from last eight years and becomes a family now. DENY is around 80 years and British citizen. DENY also have a responsibility of disabled sister. At the moment DENY is suffering from lung cancer and doctors gave him last 6-8 months time. this boy cherry is looking after him from longtime like his son. So is it possible my friend can adopt this boy legally as his son???
As we don’t have any knowledge about this so Your guidance will help us lot.

Thank you

No, is the short answer. What are you looking to achieve? There may be a way to do that.

There is no adult adoption in UK.

Would suggest you research the Haigh adoption process regards intercontinental care and adoption process.
There are EU rulings and precedents,

Sorry should have said research The Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption.
