Bulgaria programme

As with all our adoption programmes, we recommend applicants contact us for an overview of all country programmes as selecting a country is an important decision and by discussing the different programmes with HHAMA applicants can be helped to make a decision which is informed and realistic in terms of completing an adoption.


The Bulgaria Programme is no longer an active programme for HHAMA. This programme has been suspended for the foreseeable future.

Bulgaria requires 4 post-placement reports for a period of two years after the adoption.

The reports shall be completed every six months in a course of two years by a licensed social worker.

The reports should contain information about the physical and mental condition of the child, about his/her adaptation, etc.

The post-placement reports should include photos of the child.

Sending post placement information is a legal requirement of the Ministry of Justice and families are obliged to strictly follow the post placement schedule for sending the reports.
