Comprehensive Support Under One Team
Medical care, surrogate matching, legal support, and post-birth documentation are included in one agreement, under one team
How to Choose a Surrogacy Program: What Matters Most
Three factors drive the right programme choice:
Your embryo situation
Do you already have frozen embryos ready for transfer, or do you need egg and sperm retrieval — or an egg donor?
Your starting point determines which programme tier fits
Your risk tolerance
A standard program covers 1 IVF cycle and 2 embryo transfer attempts. If neither results in a pregnancy, additional cycles are at your expense.
A guaranteed program fixes the total price — IVMED covers every additional attempt until a live birth
Your legal eligibility by country
Surrogacy in Ukraine is available to married heterosexual couples with a documented medical indication only. Surrogacy in Mexico is open to same-sex couples and single parents.
Eligibility is confirmed at the consultation stage — before any agreement is signed

What Is a Guaranteed Surrogacy Program?
A guaranteed surrogacy program means one fixed price covers the entire treatment journey until a live birth — regardless of how many IVF cycles or embryo transfers are required.
In a standard program, intended parents pay for each additional attempt if the first one fails.
In a guaranteed program, IVMED absorbs those costs. If a surrogate cannot continue the pregnancy for medical reasons, a replacement surrogate is matched at no additional charge.
What the guarantee specifically covers
- Every additional IVF cycle after the first
- Every additional embryo transfer attempt
- Every additional embryo transfer attempt
- Genetic screening (PGT-A) of embryos
What the guarantee specifically covers
Intended parents’ flights and accommodation during visits, any personal medical costs unrelated to the surrogacy program itself.
For most intended parents beginning their surrogacy journey, the guaranteed program removes the most difficult variable: uncertainty about total cost.
What's Included in Every IVMED Surrogacy Program
Every program is a turnkey package — medical treatment, agency coordination and legal work in one price
Surrogate matching
Pre-screened surrogates from IVMED's own database. No waiting list — programs start without a queue.
Egg donor selection
Pre-screened surrogates from IVMED's own database. No waiting list — programs start without a queue.
IVF and embryo transfer
Performed at IVMED Medical Center, IVMED's own clinic built to ESHRE laboratory standards — not a subcontracted lab.
Pregnancy monitoring
Nine months of monitoring by IVMED doctors, including prenatal screenings at weeks 12 and 18.
Legal contract and parentage
A notarised contract with the surrogate; intended parents recorded as legal parents from birth.
Dedicated coordinator
One coordinator for you and a separate one for the surrogate, in your language — ten languages, including Mandarin Chinese.
Birth registration and exit support
Birth certificate, document legalisation and travel paperwork for your home country.
Surrogacy Programs by Country
Surrogacy is legal in several countries, at very different costs and under very different rules.
The table compares the main destinations for international intended parents. IVMED runs programs in Ukraine and Mexico; Georgia and the USA are shown for reference.
Legal frameworks change. Eligibility is confirmed individually at the free consultation
Ukraine pairs a low, fixed all-in cost with guaranteed programs that run until a live birth and a surrogacy law tested over more than a decade. The USA offers the widest eligibility but costs three to four times more. Georgia is priced close to Ukraine, but a draft law to ban surrogacy for foreign nationals has been pending since 2023 — a risk intended parents should weigh.
The destinations IVMED operates each have a dedicated page — see surrogacy in Ukraine and surrogacy in Mexico.

Legal Support Included in IVMED Programs
International surrogacy involves navigating two legal systems simultaneously: the country where the birth takes place and the home country where parentage must be recognised. IVMED’s legal team manages the Ukrainian side of this process in full, while preparing the documentation your own legal counsel will need for home-country recognition.
In Ukraine, surrogacy is regulated by Ministry of Health Order No. 787, which establishes clear procedures for parentage registration. Both intended parents are recorded on the birth certificate at birth — without a court hearing or parental order process. IVMED’s legal support covers the surrogacy agreement, civil registry coordination, and the exit document process for your child.
IVMED's legal team handles:
- Notarised surrogacy contract between intended parents and surrogate mother
- Birth certificate registration directly in the intended parents' names
- Apostille and document legalisation for international travel
- Document translation and notary services for home-country submission
What your own lawyer handles:
- Home-country recognition of Ukrainian parentage (governed by your national law)
- Any court applications required under your country's legal system
IVMED does not guarantee legal recognition in any specific country, as this is determined by your home country’s laws. We support you through every step of the Ukrainian process and connect you with specialist legal professionals where further guidance is needed.

How to Get Started: From First Consultation to Matched Surrogate
Free consultation: review your situation and eligibility
Discuss your medical situation and legal eligibility with an IVMED coordinator by Skype or Zoom — no travel required. You’ll leave with a clear programme recommendation and an understanding of which jurisdiction fits your family type.
Program selection: choose the right tier and country
Choose the right programme tier and country. Your coordinator prepares a personalised proposal with a staged payment plan — three separate contracts give you full visibility and control over where each payment goes.
Medical screening and document preparation
Intended parents complete a medical evaluation. Existing embryos are assessed; if needed, egg retrieval, sperm preparation, or egg donor matching is scheduled. Legal documents are prepared for notarisation.
Surrogate matching and program start
IVMED identifies a suitable surrogate from its own database — no external waiting list. After mutual agreement, the programme begins. The embryo transfer is scheduled once all medical and legal conditions are confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions About Surrogacy Programs
Q What is the difference between a standard and a guaranteed surrogacy program?
A standard programme covers a set number of attempts — which may include one or several IVF cycles and embryo transfers with a matched surrogate. If these included transfers do not lead to a live birth, additional cycles are priced separately.
A guaranteed surrogacy programme includes unlimited IVF cycles and surrogate matching until a live birth, for a fixed upfront fee. The guaranteed option costs more initially but removes the risk of open-ended costs across multiple failed attempts — an important consideration for couples who have already experienced unsuccessful fertility treatment.
Q Which surrogacy program is right for me if I already have embryos?
If you have cryopreserved embryos ready for transfer, the Own Embryos Programme is the starting point. Your genetic material is transferred to a matched surrogate without a new egg retrieval cycle, which is typically the most cost-efficient entry into a surrogacy arrangement. Confirm transport and import procedures for frozen embryos with the IVMED coordination team at your initial consultation.
Q Is legal support included in all surrogacy programs?
Yes. Every IVMED programme includes a notarised surrogacy agreement, birth certificate registration in the intended parents’ names, and exit document support. This covers the Ukrainian side of the legal process. For recognition of Ukrainian parentage in your home country, IVMED provides all required documentation and recommends that intended parents also consult a legal professional in their country of residence, as home-country rules vary significantly.
Q Can single parents and gay couples use IVMED surrogacy programs?
Ukrainian surrogacy legislation is available to internationally married heterosexual couples only. For gay surrogacy for couples and surrogacy for single parents, IVMED offers programmes in Mexico, where the legal framework is broader. Eligibility for each country is confirmed during the free consultation.
Q How long does a surrogacy program take from start to birth?
From initial consultation to birth, the full surrogacy journey typically takes 12–18 months. This includes medical screening, surrogate matching, IVF, embryo transfer, pregnancy (approximately 9 months), and post-birth documentation. A guaranteed programme may run longer if additional transfer attempts are required. Your coordinator will provide a personalised timeline estimate during the programme selection stage.
