Choosing a surrogacy destination isn’t just about cost or location. It’s about clarity, support, and what matters most to your family.

Before comparing countries, ask yourself:

- How much legal certainty do I need?
- What donor options are essential for me?
- How is the surrogate sourced and screened?
- Do I prefer predictable fees or flexibility?
- What level of support will I need along the journey?
- Can I realistically manage the travel and lifestyle demands?

Read our full guide.

Understanding your own priorities is key to figuring out which surrogacy destination is right for you and a good fit for your circumstances.
