Reference for Possible Steps to Take if Your Child is Abducted Abroad Whether or Not Hague Convention of Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction Applies

Posted on by

International child abduction is not a new problem, but it is a growing problem.

A comprehensive, if somewhat dated list of steps a parent may take if their child is abducted is excerpted and cited below.

  • Request revocation of the other parent’s passport
  • Request revocation or suspension of the other parent’s green card.
  • Request assistance from INTERPOL.
  • Follow / trace the money that the other parent is using.
  • File in a US court for custody and return of your child
  • File in the foreign court for custody and return of your child
  • and much more.

Read much more in this disjointed San Francisco All Voices news article: How do mainstream media cover international child custody disputes? because there is still some good information there.
