Hanoi - Hollywood superstar Angelina Jolie's newest adopted son, Pax Thien, was issued a US passport and immigration visa Tuesday in Vietnam, clearing the way for him to go home and meet new dad Brad Pitt. Jolie arrived at the US embassy with 3-year-old Pax, whom she formally adopted from a Vietnamese orphanage last week, just after noon Thursday and left 45 minutes later.

Photographers jostled at the entryway for a photo into the dark-tinted windows but none of them managed to get a shot of the actress, who has kept a low profile since her arrival in Hanoi.

Picking up a passport and visa is the last legal hurdle for a US citizen adopting, leaving Jolie and her son free to travel when she chooses, according to Vu Duc Long, director of Vietnam's International Adoption Department.

"She may leave Vietnam tonight," Long said, though other sources indicated she might wait until Wednesday.

Jolie's latest adoption brings her international family with Pitt to four children. Pitt was reportedly under contract to a movie in Los Angeles and could not be with his partner to pick-up the latest addition.

Pax joins 5-year-old Maddox, adopted from Cambodia; Zahara, aged two, from Ethiopia; as well as baby Shiloh - the couple's biological daughter who was born in Namibia last May.

Jolie who signed the adoption papers as a single parent because Vietnamese regulations do not allow unmarried couples to co-adopt.
