Adopting Children from Kazakhstan
Frost is excited about the recent addition of a Kazakhstan
program! Our partners in Kazakhstan are dedicated,
experienced professionals who understand the importance of
finding stable, loving families for the children in orphanages.
Requirements/Eligibility
Kazakhstan is open to married couples, with a minimum age of
25 for both parents, and a maximum age of 52 for mothers and
55 for fathers.
Single mothers may adopt one child at a time.
Available Children
Boys and girls ranging in ages six months to 10 years are
available for adoption. The health and development of children in
the Baby Homes is evaluated on a regular basis. The staffs
include therapists and medical specialists. There is a small “child
to staff” ratio, as they understand the importance of consistency
in caretakers for the children’s attachment development. The
children are well cared for as Kazakhstan prides itself for its
child-care programs.
Time Frame
Families can expect to be home with their child(ren) in less than twelve months
from the time of application, pending completion and approval of the paperwork.
The time frame may vary by gender, age of child, and program selected.
The Process
Once our liaisons register you with the proper entities in
Kazakhstan, you are issued a letter from the Guardianship Body
of the town where you will be adopting. This letter invites you to
come to Kazakhstan to adopt. Once there, you will be shown
children and allowed to select your baby/child(ren).
Kazakhstani law requires parents to spend two weeks with their
child prior to adoption. The adoption is completed in Kazakhstan and families
then exit through Moscow to complete the Embassy paperwork.
The trip can take three to four weeks. Your family is cared for by our liaisons
while in country. Frost helps you prepare for your trip with a list of “to do’s”
before traveling.
To help with the actual trip, you may consult our travel information for
assistance with travel plans and details.
“You have been wonderful to
work with, and we have highly
recommended Frost to several
others we have come
in contact with. Thanks, again.”
