Similar to the US, Mexico has different states and each  has different legislation. Accordingly, while Tabasco state banned Surrogacy for foreigners recently, other Mexican states have no surrogacy laws. As a result, a number of Mexico-only and  hybrid programs continue to be offered, particularly in Mexico City and Cancun, Quinta Roo which both offer IVF facilities. Intended parents can maintain contact with their surrogates throughout—and beyond—their pregnancies, if they wish.   Mexican egg donors remain anonymous. Caucasian and Latin Sperm and Egg Donors are available

Mexico Programs

Following delivery, the surrogate’s name and the genetically linked father go on the Mexican Birth Certificate. Once the surrogate has signed a document giving her permission, the intended parents can take their child out of Mexico.

Ongoing counselling and support is provided to surrogates throughout the pregnancy.  Surrogates live in their homes, with the full support of their families.

Hybrid Programs

Increasingly, US-based agencies recruit US surrogates. IVF processes and  embryo transfer commonly occurs in Mexico City or Cancun. Often the legal components may be done in California. Births may occur in the US. It is possible to bring your own surrogate and /or known donor.
