Can You View Adoption Records?
In the USA, adoption records are typically sealed and not available online to protect the privacy of all those involved. Accessing adoption records, depending on the state or circumstances of the adoption, often requires a court order, consent from both the adoptive and birth parents, or registration with a mutual consent registry. Adopted.com is the world’s largest registry of exactly these mutual consent voluntary adoption records, with over 1M profiles.
