From UK to Riyadh- will visa be refused to my adopted daughter?

Post new topic

Hi
We are applying for permanent family visa, have an adopted daughter , have her birth certificate all attested and translated but my hubby says he was told they could refuse us our visa as he has heard it happening before to a family?
Surely not? We adopted her 14 yrs ago and I find it hard to believe that there are no other expat families over here with adopted children!
I'm now worried ... Does anyone know?

Hello,
If you have adoption legal documents for the daughter then you'll not have any problem about granting the visa. :idontagree:

Good luck.

Hi
Thank you! We have birth certificate in our name all attested and translated! This is what my hubby is taking to get the yellow slip for our permanent visa next week?

Hello again,  :cheers:

This should be okay. also I recommend you to contact the Saudi Arabian embassy in your country to be on the safe side.
Good luck.
