Frequently Ask Questions

An adoption deed is a legal instrument through which adoptive parents acquire the rights, custody, and guardianship of a child. This document formalizes the adoption process and establishes the legal relationship between the adoptive parents and the child.

If an adoption deed is not registered, it becomes invalid. Therefore, adoption deed registration is compulsory to ensure its legal validity.

The grounds for a valid adoption typically include the following:

  • Consent: The biological parents (if living) or guardians must provide their consent to the adoption. In cases where the biological parents are deceased, consent from the legal guardians may be required.
  • Eligibility of Adoptive Parents: The adoptive parents must meet specific eligibility criteria, such as age, marital status, and financial stability, as outlined by relevant adoption laws.
  • Eligibility of the Child: The child must be legally free for adoption, meaning that any previous legal guardianship or parental rights have been terminated.
  • Religion: Religion also plays an important role when adopting a child.

A proper adoption deed should be there with the parents who are adopting the child.

Yes, it is essential to obtain court orders for a valid legal adoption. However, it is also important to execute an adoption deed to formalize the process and establish the legal relationship between the adoptive parents and the child.
