Foreign adoption applicants can only adopt one child at a time in China (with the exception of the adoption of twins or the siblings living in the same welfare institute).

 

Those foreign adopters who have already adopted one child and who wish to adopt a second Chinese child, may, in principle, do so only one year after the first adoption, by resubmitting adoptive applications and certified materials.
