Yes, the Childhood and Adolescence Code in Article 68 states that unmarried persons can adopt regardless of their sexual orientation. The Court established this in the case of Chandler Burr, a US citizen, who adopted two siblings and the ICBF subsequently attempted to revoke the adoption. Subsequently, it found that the ICBF violated the rights of the children and that sexual orientation cannot be a criterion for denying or revoking an adoption (Judgment T-276 of 2012).

Although gender identity has not been expressly referred to in adoption rulings, it is clear that gender identity cannot be a ground for denial either.
