How much does it cost to adopt a child?

The costs of adopting a child vary depending on the type of adoption you choose. Adopting a child from the care of the state of Texas has a very small administrative fee, and parents may qualify for adoption assistance to help cover some of the costs of the new child. In contrast, international adoptions can cost anywhere from $7,000 to up to $30,000, depending on the country from which the child is adopted and the associated adoption agency.
