Art. 264b ZGB

Eine Person, die nicht verheiratet ist und nicht in eingetragener Partnerschaft lebt, darf ein Kind allein adoptieren, wenn sie mindestens 28 Jahre alt ist.

Eine verheiratete Person, die mindestens 28 Jahre alt ist, darf ein Kind allein adoptieren, wenn der Ehegatte dauernd urteilsunfähig oder seit mehr als zwei Jahren mit unbekanntem Aufenthalt abwesend ist oder wenn die Ehe seit mehr als drei Jahren gerichtlich getrennt ist.

Eine in eingetragener Partnerschaft lebende Person, die mindestens 28 Jahre alt ist, darf ein Kind allein adoptieren, wenn ihre eingetragene Partnerin oder ihr eingetragener Partner dauernd urteilsunfähig oder seit mehr als zwei Jahren mit unbekanntem Aufenthalt abwesend ist.

Vom Mindestalter kann abgewichen werden, wenn dies zur Wahrung des Kindeswohls nötig ist. Die adoptionswillige Person hat die Abweichung zu begründen.
