II. Key Points of Georgia's Surrogacy Policy (2026 Update)

Georgia is one of the few countries in the world where commercial surrogacy is fully legalized, and it explicitly allows foreign citizens (including bereaved families) to pursue surrogacy. Key policy points in 2026:

Legal Protection: Surrogacy agreements are protected under the Georgian Civil Code, clearly identifying the intended parents as the legal parents of the child, with no need for subsequent adoption procedures.
Priority Channel for Bereaved Families: Some fertility centers offer fast-track processing and fee reductions for families holding a "Certificate of Death of an Only Child".
Embryo Rights: The use of donated eggs or sperm is permitted, and the principle of donor anonymity is protected by law.
Post-Birth Identity: After birth, the child will directly receive the intended parents' surname, and the birth certificate will not contain the surrogate's information.
Nationality and Visa: After birth, the child can apply for a Georgian birth certificate and use it to apply for a travel document or passport to return to their home country (consult the Chinese Embassy in Georgia for policy details in advance).

III. Re-surrogacy Process for Bereaved Families (Standard Steps 2026)

Initial Consultation and Assessment: Contact a professional agency (e.g., Tulip Fertility Center / Kyrgyz Tulip, Thailand OneLife Wanlai Fertility Center), submit health reports and proof of bereavement.
Select a Surrogate: Choose a qualified woman from the Georgian surrogate database and sign a tripartite agreement.
IVF Cycle: The intended parents (or using donors) provide sperm/eggs for embryo cultivation.
Embryo Transfer: Transfer the screened healthy embryo(s) into the surrogate's uterus.
Pregnancy Management and Delivery: The surrogate receives regular prenatal check-ups during pregnancy; intended parents can travel to Georgia or monitor remotely.
Birth and Documentation: After the child is born, the hospital issues a birth certificate, and a lawyer assists in completing the legal recognition of parentage.
