Polish International Adoption Process

Once you submit your application to World Links we will help you begin the international adoption process in Poland. You will be assigned an individual consultant to assist in gathering and completing the documents needed for your dossier. Once your dossier is complete, it will be sent to Poland to registered and reviewed. Referrals are received after documents are reviewed by the Central Adoption Commission, which will then begin to search for a referral child that will match an adoptive parent’s request based on age, gender and health status.

As soon as a referral becomes available, you will be notified and receive an invitation to travel to Poland. Your referral package will contain a profile of a child best matching the description your provided. It includes the name of the prospective child together with pictures and relevant medical and social information.

If you choose to accept the referral and continue to the next step, World Links will schedule your trip and assist with all travel arrangements to Poland. Adoptive parents then travel to Poland to meet and spend time with their potential child and to attend a court hearing. At this time, parents can either stay in Poland to complete the adoption or return to Poland in 2-3 weeks to complete the process and bring their child home. Your first trip to Poland can last from 1-2 weeks. Your second visit can take 7-10 days.
