The surrogates in Colombia
The health and well-being of the surrogate is our highest priority. In the initial stages, the clinic conducts comprehensive medical and psychological screening to ensure that the surrogate can participate in the program. Once you are matched with each other, the continued follow-up of the surrogate mother takes place in Bogotá.

Criterias to become a surrogate
The surrogates live in Bogotá, Colombia. They have given birth to at least one child of their own and have undergone thorough examinations, serology and blood tests, as well as additional tests to ensure their overall health status is good.

Medical check-ups
The surrogate is regularly visited at home to ensure that everything goes well during the pregnancy. The surrogate undergoes medical screening before being approved for carrying a child and receives psychological counseling during and after the pregnancy. The pregnancy plan includes monthly ultrasound examinations, scans of, among others, NC (Nuchal Translucency) and GTT (Growth and Glucose Metabolism), and fetal diagnostics.

Guarantee program in Colombia
- In Colombia, we offer a guarantee program with egg donation where all necessary costs associated with the process are included. Optional extras may be available. This creates financial security, transparency and accessibility.
- A guarantee program means that all parts included in a surrogacy process, such as, egg donation, embryo creation, legal process at the destination, compensation to the surrogate including coordination and support, are done as many times as needed until you have become parents.
- The difference between the guarantee program and other programs is that you, for other programs, pay for costs that arise if parts of the process need to be repeated.
Egg donation for surrogacy in Colombia
The egg donors come from Colombia and are young women whose health, medical history and habits are assessed after psychological and medical screening. The screening is done by the clinic to ensure that she can participate in the program.
Intended parents will have access to a selection of profiles that match their preferences. The egg donor’s profile is anonymous and contains detailed information about, among other things, her medical health, interests, education and includes recent photos.
HIV and other infectious diseases in surrogacy in Colombia
Nordic Surrogacy is proud to offer opportunities even for couples and singles living with HIV and other infectious diseases. Intended parents travel to the clinic in Colombia to leave gametes, and the genetic material is washed and tested before the IVF process is carried out. The process is very safe and prevents viruses and diseases from being transmitted to the fetus or the woman carrying the child.

Legal support for surrogacy in Colombia
We collaborate with lawyers in Colombia who will accompany our parents throughout the entire legal process.
The services include agreements between the intended parents and the surrogate as well as the child’s registration with authorities immediately after birth. The birth certificate will include the name of the biological father and the name of the surrogate.
After that, she will sign a legal document renouncing all her parental rights. The local legal process in Colombia is expected to take about a month before you can go home.
Frequently asked questions about surrogacy in Colombia
How does the surrogate mother live during her pregnancy?
The surrogate mother’s lifestyle and health are regularly monitored in medical check-ups at the clinic. However, she continues to live and work as usual, in her own home with her family. In some cases, if she wishes, she moves closer to the clinic in the later stages of pregnancy as labour approaches.
How much does a surrogacy process cost in Colombia?
What citizenship do children born through surrogacy gain?
The citizenship of the child will depend on the regulatory framework for surrogacy in the country where the surrogacy process takes place. In some countries the child is born without any citizenship (stateless), and in other countries the child is born with the citizenship of the country of birth. Ultimately, however, after a legal process, the child always gets the citizenship of the parent’s home country.
