The Wisconsin Petition for an Order for Registration of a Foreign Adoption Order is a legal document that is filed in the Wisconsin Circuit Court when an individual or couple are seeking to register a foreign adoption order in the state. This petition is usually filed after the adoption has been finalized in the foreign country, and is necessary for the adoptive parents to obtain certain legal rights and responsibilities in Wisconsin, such as the ability to enroll the adopted child in school or to obtain a birth certificate. There are three types of Wisconsin Petition for an Order for Registration of a Foreign Adoption Order: 1) a petition for full registration; 2) a petition for conditional registration; and 3) a petition for an amended registration. A petition for full registration is the most common, and is used when all the documents and information needed to register the foreign adoption order in Wisconsin have been obtained. A petition for conditional registration is used when additional documentation is needed. An amended registration is used when the foreign adoption order needs to be modified in order for it to be fully registered in Wisconsin.
