Re: international child support?
Providing that your daughter's father is resident in the UK and has a UK address enforcement of a maintenance order should not be affected by the fact that most of his income comes from outside of the UK. Your normal course of action to obtain maintenance will be by way of application to the Child Support Agency. They have facilities for obtaining a father's address of my advice would be to make an immediate application.
