Adoptions of 1957-2012; children born in the Netherlands and abroad

Description

The data in this table concern so-called ‘ordinary adoptions’ of Dutch and foreign children. The table includes both court adoptions and adoptions through the Hague Adoption Convention. If Dutch parents adopt a child from a country that is affiliated to the Hague Adoption Convention, the adoption is automatically and fully recognised without the intervention of a Dutch court. In all other cases, an adoption takes place through the Dutch court. The numbers of adoption children in the table are distinguished by gender. Furthermore, a distinction is made between children born in the Netherlands and children born abroad. Partner Ad Options (formerly Step Parent Adoptions) are not included in this table. Data available from 1957 to 2012. Status of the figures: The figures are final. Changes as of 10 March 2012: The figures for 2012 have been added and the table has been discontinued. When will the new figures come? No longer applicable.
