English term or phrase: placement order
Hi, I'm looking for the Spanish translation of "placement order" in relation to adoptions. Here is the definition:

placement order. an order made by the court authorizing a local authority to place a child for ADOPTION with any prospective adopters who may be chosen by the authority.

Thanks a bunch in advance!

Spanish translation:mandato/orden judicial de asignación de menor para su adopción
Explanation:
Teresa, the first thing I wish to point out is that you have not mentioned any target country for your translation. The rendering might strongly depend on the target country. Since we do not know where your text is going to be used, I shall go with a “general” suggestion that can be useful, I hope, in the whole Spanish-speaking world: orden judicial de asignación de menor para su adopciónu/mandato judicial para adopción de menor (abridged!).

This reference below mentions the term “colocación del niño”, but I have to disagree with it. “Colocación” just sounds too “physical”, whereas this procedure should be governed by psychological and legal principles, all of them intervening in the benefit of the minor to be adopted. And last but not least, I recommend to use “menor” and not “niño” because “menor” is the legal term par excellence, not “niño”, which is quite ambiguous.

Declaración de adoptabilidad


Explanation:
In Guatemala we use "declaración de adoptabilidad".

That is the term used by a judge who issues the "declaración de adoptabilidad" (it's a resolution) and orders de National Adoption Counsil to start in motion the adoption proceedings.
