Why Georgia Country

A Legal, Established Path When UK Options Are Limited

Georgia Country (Republic of Georgia, capital Tbilisi) has supported gestational surrogacy for decades. Intended parents are named on the birth certificate from birth — the surrogate has no parental rights.

AFTER UKRAINE: Since many European surrogacy programmes became unavailable after 2022, Georgia Country has become the most established international option for UK families. The legal framework remains in place as of 2026.

Legal Framework

Georgia's laws recognise intended parents at birth. Named on the Georgian birth certificate. The surrogate has no parental rights.

From £45,000–£65,000+

All-inclusive. Significantly lower than any equivalent commercial programme available to UK families internationally.

Frequently Asked Question

Q1: Can UK families use Georgia Country surrogacy?

Since many European surrogacy destinations became unavailable (particularly Ukraine after 2022), Georgia Country has emerged as the most established international option for European families. It has a clear legal framework, experienced IVF clinics in Tbilisi, and decades of international surrogacy history.

Q1: Can UK families use Georgia Country surrogacy?

Ans. Many UK families have completed Georgia Country programmes. Commercial surrogacy is prohibited in the UK,
but using an international programme is not unlawful for UK intended parents — provided they obtain a UK
parental order on return. Obtain independent UK legal advice before proceeding.

Q2: What is the UK parental order process?

Ans. A UK parental order transfers legal parenthood to the intended parents. You apply to the UK Family Court after
returning home. At least one intended parent must be genetically related to the child. Your UK solicitor handles
this process.

Q3: Is my child a British citizen if born in Georgia Country?

Ans. UK citizenship for a child born abroad via surrogacy depends on genetic parentage and specific legal
circumstances. Many UK families have successfully brought their Georgian-born children home — but proper
legal guidance from the outset is essential.

Q4: How many trips are required?

Ans. Typically 1–2 trips. Most UK families travel to Tbilisi for the birth and spend 2–4 weeks there for documentation.

Q5: What does the programme cost in GBP?

Ans. All-inclusive from approximately £45,000–£65,000+ depending on IVF requirements. A detailed GBP breakdown is provided during your free consultation.
