Mar 5, 2007 — HANOI (Reuters) - Hollywood superstar Angelina Jolie has applied through a U.S. agency to adopt a Vietnamese child, a top Vietnamese adoption official said over the weekend.

"She has made an application to adopt a boy aged between 3 and 4 years old, and her paperwork will be processed according to the regulations like everyone else," Vu Duc Long, director of the Ministry of Justice's International Adoption Department, told Reuters on Saturday.

Long said the boy Jolie wanted to adopt lives in the Tam Binh orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City. He did not give further details.

"Normally it takes about four months to process an adoption request, but if she has found the child, it could take much less," he said.

The Oscar-winning actress filed her application through an American adoption agency a few days ago, state media reported.

Jolie and her movie star paramour, actor Brad Pitt, made a surprise trip to Ho Chi Minh City last November during which they also paid a visit to the orphanage to meet children there.

Jolie and Pitt have said they have no plans to marry but are committed to raising their children together.

Jolie adopted 5-year-old son Maddox from Cambodia in 2002 and 2-year-old daughter Zahara from Ethiopia in 2005. She gave birth last year in Namibia to her first biological child, a daughter fathered by Pitt they named Shiloh. Pitt also has become the adoptive father of Maddox and Zahara.
