SURROGACY 2022

This post aims to address the main novelties and changes regarding surrogacy for this year 2022.

COUNTRIES: First of all, the United States and Canada continue to stand out as the safest countries to carry out surrogacy processes, where couples of any type (heterosexual, homosexual, married or not, and single mothers and fathers) can have access.

Surrogacy 2022 USA

In the United States, the increase in compensation
for pregnant women and the rigidity of insurance, especially
in the state of California, will stand out by 2022.

Surrogacy 2022 Canada

In Canada, within its altruistic model, it continues to In Canada, on the other hand, within its altruistic model, the greater
control of reimbursable expenses, included in the reform of the
Canadian Assisted Human Reproduction Act, continues to stand out. The Department of
Health Canada created a guidance document for interpreting the changes in the
law, available at:

It also highlights the proliferation of new service mediation agencies
that favor the flexibility of the sector.

Surrogacy 2022 Ukraine

In Europe, Ukraine remains the place of choice for
heterosexual married couples, due to its clear regulation. However,
internal political conflicts give the country a certain instability,
which, for the moment, has not affected
surrogacy cases.
As countries with a growing demand in surrogacy cases,
we find Argentina, Colombia and Mexico, being Argentina the safest
at a legal level.
DEADLINES: In general terms, in all countries and as a consequence of the
COVID-19 pandemic, there is still a longer period of time to find pregnant candidates,
being necessary to take this into account in order to plan the
processes adequately.
INSURANCE: The insurance sector, of vital importance for surrogacy processes
underwent a major change at the end of 2021, affecting mainly
the United States and Canada, as they are countries with high medical costs.
However, new insurance policies with medical coverage for surrogacy cases
have appeared, and it is highly recommended to always turn
to insurance brokers specialized in this field.
LEGALITY: The main concern of the families who decide to carry out a
surrogacy process is related to its legality. Article
10 of the Law on Assisted Human Reproduction Techniques explains
that any contract on this matter will be null and void.
However, this does not make the practice illegal when the commissioning parents
go to other countries where this practice is perfectly
regulated.
However, in spite of going to a country where its legislation allows it
and based on art. 10 of the LAHRT, it will remain to establish the link
between the newborn and the commissioning parents, which, depending on the country
of birth, will be carried out in one way or another.
As surrogacy is a political weapon and due to the complexity of the issue, the need for specialized legal support in these processes is not debatable.
