What Is the Hague Convention?

The Hague Abduction Convention is an international treaty that the United States, as well as numerous other countries, have joined over the past few decades. Our lawyers often refer to countries who have ratified or acceded to the Hague Convention as “Hague” countries.

The Hague, a city in the Netherlands, is where the many international treaties or Hague Conventions have been worked out. These conventions become law in the countries that formally accept them. Various countries have joined the Hague Convention that governs international abduction. The U.S. is a signatory to the Hague Convention on international kidnapping, which means that if you or your spouse remove your child from the child’s habitual residence or remove your child in violation of a custody order, the Hague Convention on international abduction will apply to the situation.
