Unfortunately, you are not eligible to adopt from OrphanCare. Our journey since 2010 has been wonderful, by saving babies and giving them a chance to live the life they deserve. We truly appreciate your intention to adopt.
However, we are an NGO that focuses on local adoption as international adoption requires a more stringent documentation and screening process. In the same time, the potential parent(s) has to adhere the adoption laws of both countries if they need to bring the child overseas. We follow the local welfare department law requirements for adopting in Malaysia.
The same laws apply to Malaysian applicants who live overseas.
OrphanCare is thrilled to hear from you. Unfortunately, you are not eligible for adoption as per JKM’s terms and criteria. Visit the JKM Department of Social Welfare website for more information.
