Product Description
The number of people in the UK looking to adopt from Russia is growing rapidly, but there has been no single reference until now that explains how to go about the process and what lies ahead.
Based on the personal experience of an adoption from Ekaterinburg in 2010, this guide provides a step-by-step explanation of the entire Russian adoption process, from obtaining approval to adopt in the UK to bringing a child home from Russia. The practical advice on such subjects as choosing a Russian facilitator, collecting paperwork for Russian court, and assessing the health of a child will help adopters avoid pitfalls and overcome hurdles that can cause stressful delays.
Adopters need patience and determination to realise their dream of bringing a child into their hearts and homes. This guide has been written to help their journey toward realising that dream that much easier.

This book has been invaluable for getting us started with Russian adoption and understanding the Russian system. It is good to have an up to date guide to what happens at each step, although every case will probably be slightly different.
I found it very clear, concise and easy to read, telling you about the author's own journey in bringing a child home from Russia. Contact details under 'Resources' cover practically everything needed. A really helpful book you shouldn't be without if you're thinking about Russian adoption or going through the process.

The book is extremely informative. Literally every single paragraph from the first chapter to the last contains valuable advice, the kind of details you would only get from someone who has been through the whole process. The book is extremely well-written, very easy to read, with every section clearly defined. With attention to very minor, but vital details, such as the dress code for Russian court, having documents stamped to avoid rejection and many more, one can be almost certain that the adoption journey will be easier when knowing what to expect. Throughout the guide Anna also gives various links to useful Internet resources as well as sample forms.
The book covers the following areas: getting started, UK process, notarising and apostilling, choosing a facilitator, registration paperwork, criminal record bureau checks, referral, medical conditions, court paperwork, nine-doctor medical, related costs, Russian court, Russian passport and UK visa.
It is clear that Anna put a lot of effort into describing how things actually work and what exactly is required in the UK and Russia, from the paperwork to choice of professionals. It also shows how stressful preparation to adoption itself can be when a lot of things do not go according to plan or take much longer. At the end of the book, however, a few success stories prove that it is all worth it.
