Adoption is the term for permanently placing a baby, infant or older child with a parent or parents who were not the true birth parents. Adoption produces the severing of the parental responsibilities and rights of the biological parents and placing those rights and responsibilities onto the adoptive parents. Many babies or children are put up for for adoption as a result of the birth parents' decision that they are unfortunately not able to adequately care for their child of any age. Other birth parents forcibly are stripped of their parental rights so that their children are placed into foster care because they were abused or abandoned. The physical incapability to reproduce biologically is a common reason to adopt. A choice to adopt might also correspond with the lack of a mate or a lack of desire to use a surrogate or sperm donor. Unmarried folks and same sex couples regularly adopt for this reason. Processes for legally adopting deviate from country to country or even between states. Normally when making an application to adopt, all prospective adoptive parents will be assessed for suitability and appropriateness.

Adopting internationally usually are more pricey and often incur further fees, like the adopters necessarily being required to journey to the source nation. People from the U.S. represent the largest number of international adoptive parents. A few large countries have relatively well thought out procedures and rules for foreign adopters to follow, while others don't. Adoption procedures for each nation vary widely.The requirements needed to start the process of international adoption also vary widely, depending on the country of the adoptive parents. In the U.S., as a general rule, typically the initial point of the process is finding an agency or facilitator to deal with. Every adoption agency or facilitator works with a different group of countries, although other people focus only on a lone country.
