Approximately how much will it cost?
The cost for adopting a child from Ethiopia is approximately $13,470. (See our complete fee schedule.) This does not include homestudy fees, travel or hotel expenses. However, in most cases, some if not all of the fees can be recovered through tax credits and other programs designed to assist families who wish to adopt. Half of the fee is due upon referral and the other is due before traveling to Ethiopia. If you plan on having your child escorted (additional cost), this half will be due before the child comes home.
