surrogacy in Iran

Surrogacy in Iran : Regulations, Process , and Costs

Surrogacy in Iran is a contract by which the surrogate mother agrees to artificially become pregnant and bear a child for another couple or individual who is the child’s legal parent. If the couple cannot have a child due to the infertility of one of the partners, they can seek the services of another person who is willing to be the surrogate.

Surrogacy in Iran takes place similar to the same process in countries like the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Ukraine, and Canada. Surrogacy in Iran through TebMedTourism has many benefits including:

• Cheapest and best country for surrogacy
• Legal & religious support
• High success rate
• Availability of all the other fertility services including egg donation, embryo donation, PGD, and gender selection (only sperm donation is illegal)
• Equipped fertility centers
• Specialized physicians
• Well-experienced staff
• Presence of attorneys aware of surrogacy laws

Surrogacy in Iran can happen if a surrogate is over 18 years old and if she can provide evidence that she has taken proper contraceptives and she is no longer sexually active. Iranian law doesn’t permit the practice of surrogacy in Iran for single people, lesbians, or gays unless a married straight couple wants to do this process. In this case, they must get medical evidence from a doctor that shows there is a medical necessity of doing surrogacy for having offspring, which would allow the couple to enter into the contract.

It is important to note that surrogacy is still controversial in many parts of the world and it is illegal in many countries including European ones such as Germany and France.

Surrogacy in Iran is completely legal and supported by the government. It can take place as long as both the male and female partners are in agreement. A medical doctor (gynecologist) who is qualified to do the surrogacy procedure must be consulted and they must confirm that surrogacy is the proper option.

It is essential that both intended parents and surrogates know about the whole process, their rights, and their responsibilities before starting the surrogacy process since just like any other medical procedure, there are some risks involved and they should all be well-understood by both parties before signing the contracts.

The Surrogacy Agreement in Iran 

Surrogacy in Iran is a topic that is of great interest to many people all around the world. However, not everyone is as informed about it as they should be. Surrogacy has been a practice in the Islamic religion and culture of Iran for centuries. Ayatollah Khomeini, who was the supreme leader of the Islamic Revolution of Iran, and Ayatollah Khameneie, who is the current leader of the country both supported the importance of extending families and approved the use of assisted reproductive technologies to help infertile couples have children. Surrogacy is legal in Iran as well as in the United States and some western countries.

Surrogacy procedure has been legalized and regulated under the laws that are regulated in each country. For example, in the United States, the Surrogacy Agreement allows for the surrogate to be paid, as long as it comes to the United States border in one piece. You may choose your surrogate mother from Iranian volunteers or ask your surrogate mother to accompany you come to Iran.

If you decide to have your surrogate come to Iran, you are going to need a Surrogate Agreement that is specifically written for the laws of Iran. This agreement will also need to include the surrogate’s name, address, passport number, and other information. The more information you can provide to your broker or healthcare facilitator company, the better your chances of getting a successful surrogacy procedure in Iran.

Once you have the forms you want, you will need to find out the basic facts about how they can work with you. The agency should be able to answer all your questions, but there may be some you cannot understand. Ask any questions that you may have regarding the procedures that they are going to perform.

A good agency will make sure to explain all legal agreements before you get started. They should also be able to give you a copy of the Surrogacy Agreement for you to review when you finalize your exact medical travel date.

Why Surrogacy is Cheaper in Iran?

You should know that when we talk about having the cheapest surrogacy costs, it does not mean the low quality of the services. Today, the value of Iran’s currency is at its lowest. As a result, when international patients change their Dollar, Pound, or Euro to Rial, they will receive a huge amount of money which makes all medical and non-medical services cheaper than what they are in any other country.

Regardless of the low cost of services, Iran has the latest technologies in the field of fertility treatment and the top gynecologists and embryologists which turned Iran into the best country for surrogacy in the Middle East and one of the top destinations in the world.
