Adoption

Hi QL...

I am living/working here in Doha contracted for the next 3 yrs minimum with the opportunity to extend.

My question is, my wife and I are looking to adopt in the future... We are from uk and have 2 children of our own here.

Can we adopt a child from another country ie. Africa or Russia and bring them to Qatar.

I dont know what the process or policies are in Qatar for this - or even if they allow it.

Would i have to go through the uk as we are British?

Any help would be kindly appreciated

I personally know 4 families that have adopted while they lived here in Qatar. Go through your embassy.

I'd check with the British Embassy. I know couples in UAE who adopted from China but I don't know the details.
