Norway has ratified the 1996 Hague Child Protection Convention as of March 1, 2016, and the Turkish government has asked its legislature to ratify it. (Not the Child Abduction Convention, which both nations already belong to.) The U.S. has not yet ratified the 1996 treaty, although it has begun the process.
If the U.S. were to complete ratification, it would strengthen other countries' enforcement of U.S. and other child custody orders and prevent competing claims to jurisdiction; but it would eliminate (in international cases between two member countries) two very important U.S. child custody rules that make our Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Acts and Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act work so well to prevent, and not reward, child abduction: (1) our clear rule that jurisdiction for the first determination of a child's custody usually does not shift to a new state until six months after moving; and (2) that once a state or country has jurisdiction, it keeps it until everyone involved has moved away.
