Cases of Recognition and Enforcement of a Foreign Court Decision on Adoption

In this case, the issue concerned the adoption of a Ukrainian citizen by a Greek citizen by decision of a Greek court. To legally formalize this fact in Ukraine, a procedure for the recognition and enforcement of the foreign court decision was carried out. The procedure included filing an application to the court, preparing documents, their review by the court, and issuing the corresponding decision.

The recognition of foreign court decisions in Ukraine is an important element of international cooperation in family law. According to current legislation, such decisions must be officially recognized to have legal effect in Ukraine. The procedure includes submitting documents such as the foreign court's decision, the adoption certificate, documents confirming the citizenship of the adoptee and the adopter, and other relevant materials.

After the court issued the decision on the recognition and enforcement of the foreign court act, changes were made to the birth record. Based on this, the client received a new birth certificate in accordance with Ukrainian law. This certificate serves as official confirmation that the adoption has legal force in Ukraine.

Case Details

  • Plaintiff: Ukrainian citizen adopted by a Greek citizen.
  • Place of adoption decision: Greece.
  • Documents: Greek court decision, adoption certificate, birth certificate, documents confirming citizenship.

Result
