The age of the child can matter in other ways as well.<\/p>\n
Child interview<\/strong><\/p>\n For example, in an international child abduction case, the Dutch court will invite the child to a child interview when the child is six years or older. If the child is under 6, the parents can request the court to hear the child.<\/span><\/p>\n Art. 13 part 1 b of the convention<\/strong><\/p>\n Article 13 (1) (b) of the Convention states that the return of a kidnapped child can be refused by the court if there is a serious risk that the child will be exposed to a physical or mental danger when he returns to the country of his habitual residence, or is brought into an unbearable condition in any other way.<\/span><\/p>\n The young age of a child may be important in this regard.\u00a0<\/span>The young age of a child may be important in this regard, but it is not decisive in itself. In addition to the young age, there will have to be additional circumstances. This is also the case when a very young child will be separated from the kidnapping parent after returning to the country of origin because they will not return. The young age in itself is not enough to conclude that the child will be in an unbearable condition upon return.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How can I proof that I did not agree with the relocation of my child?” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n First of all, what you need to keep in mind is that the parent who states that there was consent to relocate the child, has to proof that there was indeed consent.<\/p>\n But if you wish to proof that there was no consent, you can use everything that seems relevant to proof this. It could be old e-mails or what\u2019s app messages, that show that you did not consent. Or that the move would be temporary. Besides that you could use pictures, contracts, plain tickets or insurence papers. You can also use statements from relatives or others who where aware of the plans. Or statements from employers or schoolmanagement.<\/p>\n In conclusion: you can use just about anything that shows what were the plans for the future.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Is child abduction a criminal offence?” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n In the Netherlands it is a criminal act to keep a child from the person(s) who has custody over the child. It is called \u2018withdrawal from authority\u2019. This criminal act is described in\u00a0<\/span>article 279 of the Dutch Criminal Law<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Dutch prosecutor\u2019s office has written a guideline about what kind of punishment it will demand in criminal cases about withdrawal from authority. You can read this\u00a0<\/span>guideline<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>on the website of the government. The fourth category of cases refers to international child abduction.<\/p>\n In 2019 the Dutch Appeal Court in The Hague has imposed a sentence to a father for international child abduction. He was sentenced to imprisonment for a period of 42 months. He had taken the children from the mother when they were 3 and 8 years old. After that he had taken them to other locations and had changed their names. As a result the mother did not know where the children were for a period of 11 years. You can\u00a0<\/span>read this decision<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>on the website of the Dutch courts.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”What does habitual residence mean?” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” open=”off”]<\/p>\n The Convention does not give a definition of \u2018habitual residence\u2019.

This is only the case if the other parent has (joint) custody over the child.<\/p>\n The other is by not returning the child to the home state, without the consent of the other parent. Again, the other parent must have (joint) custody, to make this a case of international child abduction.

are two kinds of international child abduction:<\/p> When both parents have custody over a child and one parent decides to take the child to another country, or keep the child in another country without the consent of the other parent, it is a situation of international child abduction. In many countries this is a criminal act.<\/p> The Hague Convention on International Child Abduction dictates the member states to make sure the child will be returned immediately to the state where it had it\u2019s \u2018habitual residence\u2019 before it was abducted. There are only a few exceptions to this rule.<\/p> Child abduction creates a complicated situation, which needs to be solved as soon as possible, for the best interest of the child.<\/p> Scroll down,

You can consider making a report of a criminal offence by the other parent. In the Netherlands emotional abuse (coercive control) is not a criminal act. (In the United Kingdom, Wale, Schotland, Ireland, Australia, New Sealand and the United States it is a criminal act.)<\/span>
You can report:<\/span>
\u2013 Keeping the child from your custody \/ withholding you access to your child<\/span>
\u2013 Keeping the child from school without reason<\/span>
\u2013 Defamation or slander<\/span>
Reporting the criminal offence can lead to new information, through the assistance of the police. You can also ask for a copy of all police registrations involving your child. And off course the Dutch prosecutor will make a request for international legal aid when necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n
https:\/\/www.hcch.net\/en\/instruments\/conventions\/status-table\/?cid=24<\/a>
The HCCH made a spreadsheet showing acceptances of accessions to the Child Abduction Convention:<\/span>
https:\/\/assets.hcch.net\/docs\/d796ab1c-7137-4376-8564-3dcd7d078e49.pdf<\/a>
The Convention is by definition in force between all the States that have ratified the Convention.<\/span>
If a State has become a member through the accession procedure of art. 38 of the Convention, but has not ratified the Convention, you must check if the other State has accepted the accession of the other state. If one State has acceded before the other State, the first State must accept the accession of the second State.<\/span>
If the home country of the child is not a member, but the country where the child is currently staying is a member, you can still use the Convention and ask for a return decision in the country where the child is staying.<\/span>
The U.S. State Department keeps track of countries that enforce the Convention and maintains a similar website:\u00a0<\/span>https:\/\/travel.state.gov\/content\/childabduction\/english\/country\/hague-partycountries.html<\/a>
So you will have to check the date of accession, date of ratification and possible acceptance of the accession to find out if there is a treaty basis between the two countries.<\/span><\/p>\nDo not underestimate the harmful effects
