Peace of mind as you welcome your child

The legal framework of a fertility journey can be complex. With support from IVF Origen, you understand the requirements, your rights as an intended parent and every step involved. From drafting contracts to finalizing parental orders, we work closely with trusted legal professionals — simplifying the process so you can focus on welcoming your child with joy.
How It Works

The legal process in four steps

For surrogacy journeys in Mexico, our legal experts make sure every step complies with Mexican surrogacy law, protecting intended parents, surrogates and egg donors.
01

Establishing legal parentage

You can establish legal parentage before your baby is born. With a pre- or post-birth order signed by you and your surrogate, your name goes on the birth certificate and you are recognized as your child’s legal parent from the moment of birth.
02

Drafting and signing contracts

When working with an egg donor, a surrogate or both, every party signs a contract. We help you draft one that clearly sets out your rights and the arrangement you agreed on, so everyone is on the same page.
03

Following legal requirements

Our legal experts make sure your agreement complies with local law, including:
Gestational surrogacy Mexico only allows gestational surrogacy — the surrogate cannot use her own eggs or be genetically related to the child.
Genetic parent For international surrogacy in Mexico, at least one genetic intended parent must be a citizen of the baby’s country of residence.
04

Obtaining citizenship

After an international surrogacy birth, your baby needs citizenship in your country. We help you file the right documents and complete the testing that proves genetic relation, guided by our experience with families from many countries.
