Foreign Service children become adults at age 18 in the United States. It is important, as the parent of a child in the Foreign Service, to know at what age some of the regulations change. Please be in touch with your Career Development Officer (CDO) regarding your child being on your orders. Also please note that at age 21 there may be some age restrictions for your child.
