Adopt from Taiwan

Launched in 2019, the Taiwan program is one of Holt’s newest adoption programs.

On This Page:

Many children in Taiwan are now waiting for a permanent, loving family.

In Taiwan, children waiting for permanent, loving families are younger with moderate medical or developmental special needs. Most are in nurturing foster families and receive exceptional in-country care while they wait to join their families. Families open to a child on Holt’s waiting child photolisting or a child over the age of 5 may have more flexible eligibility criteria and a shorter wait time for a referral. Throughout your adoption from Taiwan, our team will work closely with you to ensure you feel informed and prepared every step of the way.

Children in Taiwan Who Need Families

  • Children have varying levels of special needs, and all children have some level of developmental delay and/or a complicated birth family history. Learn more about Disabilities & Medical Conditions in Special Needs Adoption.
  • Some children may have documented abuse or neglect histories.
  • Children are typically ages 2-15 at the time of referral.
  • Sibling groups are common. 
  • In many cases, children are cared for in foster families while they wait to join adoptive families.
