Die Adoption wird von der zuständigen kantonalen Behörde am Wohnsitz der Adoptiveltern ausgesprochen.
Die Adoptionsvoraussetzungen müssen bereits bei der Einreichung des Gesuchs erfüllt sein.
Ist das Gesuch eingereicht, so hindert Tod oder Eintritt der Urteilsunfähigkeit der adoptierenden Person die Adoption nicht, sofern die anderen Voraussetzungen weiterhin erfüllt sind.
Wird das Kind nach Einreichung des Gesuchs volljährig, so bleiben die Bestimmungen über die Adoption Minderjähriger anwendbar, wenn deren Voraussetzungen vorher erfüllt waren.
Der Adoptionsentscheid enthält alle für die Eintragung in das Personenstandsregister erforderlichen Angaben betreffend den Vornamen, den Namen und das Bürgerrecht der adoptierten Person.
