Do you have to pay to adopt a child?

David Holmes (Chief Executive) gives expert video advice on: Who are the children needing adoption?; What do I do if I want to adopt?; How long does the adoption process take? and more...

No, not at all. If you're adopting a child in the UK, then there are no charges that would be paid. If however, you were adopting a child from overseas, then there would be charges. You would have to pay for the assessment that is made of you, and you may also have to pay a number of additional fees that are required by the country of origin of the child.
