Are natural parents obligated to provide financial support for their child in Vietnam when the child already adopted?
The question is, when the natural parents agree to hand over the child to another person for adoption, are the natural parents still obligated to support the child? Hoping for an answer soon.
Are natural parents obligated to provide financial support for their child in Vietnam when the child already adopted?
Pursuant to Clause 4, Article 24 of the Law on Adoption 2010 stipulates consequences of adoption as follows:
1. From the date of delivery and receipt of an adopted child, the adoptive parents and adopted child will have all the rights and obligations between parents and child; and the adopted child and other members of the adoptive parents family will also have the rights and obligations between them under the law on marriage and family, the civil law and other relevant laws.
2. At the request of adoptive parents, competent state agencies shall decide on the change of the full names of adopted children.
Change of the full names of an adopted child aged 9 or more years must be consented to by such child.
3. The nationality of an adopted abandoned child shall be determined according to the nationality of the adoptive parents.
4. Unless otherwise agreed upon between the natural and adoptive parents, from the date of delivery and receipt of the adopted child, the natural parents no longer have the rights and obligations to care for. nurture, provide financial support for, represent at law, pay damages for, manage and dispose of personal property of, their child already adopted.
Thus, according to the above provisions in Vietnam, when natural parents hand over their biological child to another person for adoption, they will no longer have the obligation to support the child. However, this obligation remains if the natural parents and the adoptive parents have an agreement.
