Surrogacy in Colombia

Surrogacy in Colombia

Becoming a parent is one of the most meaningful goals a person can pursue — and for many intended parents, surrogacy is the path that makes it possible. Colombia has become a well-established destination for international surrogacy, with experienced fertility teams, modern IVF care, clear fixed-price plan structures, and a legal environment that can support many families. Tammuz Family manages the whole journey — from your first consultation to returning home with your baby — with coordinated medical, legal, and personal support at every stage.

Who is surrogacy in Colombia for?

  • Same-sex male couples building their family through surrogacy
  • Single men pursuing parenthood
  • Intended parents living with HIV, subject to medical eligibility

Eligibility is never automatic — final acceptance depends on medical review, legal review, documentation, and your individual circumstances. If you’re unsure whether the program fits your situation, the clearest next step is a conversation with our team.

Why Tammuz

Tammuz Family has supported intended parents on the path to parenthood since 2008, helping to bring more than 2,200 babies into the world across our international programs. The Colombia program is managed directly by Tammuz — the same team and the same standards you’ll find across our destinations, with local coordination in Bogotá.

How surrogacy in Colombia works

Every family’s journey is different, but the Colombia program generally follows these stages. The steps are sequential; they are not tied to fixed timeframes.

  1. Initial consultation and program review — understanding your situation and which plan may suit you.
  2. An initial clinic visit — required when beginning the process in Colombia.
  3. Egg donation and/or embryo creation — coordinated with the medical team, or transfer of existing embryos where applicable.
  4. Surrogate matching — pairing you with a screened surrogate.
  5. Embryo transfer and pregnancy monitoring — ongoing medical care through the pregnancy.
  6. Birth — with arrangements depending on medical circumstances and the hospital.
  7. Post-birth legal and documentation process — birth registration and the documents needed to return home, with legal review.

Every journey is different. Timing depends on medical processes, legal requirements, donor and surrogate availability, clinic schedules, documentation, third parties, and individual circumstances.

Is surrogacy legal in Colombia?

Colombia does not currently have a single comprehensive law regulating gestational surrogacy. Instead, the practice is supported through constitutional principles, court decisions, and legal interpretation. Each journey should follow the applicable legal procedures in force at the time of treatment.

Tammuz works with experienced legal professionals who guide intended parents through the surrogacy agreement, birth registration, and the documentation required to return home. Parentage and travel documents are handled through defined legal processes and are not automatic. Because legal requirements can change and depend on your individual circumstances, these steps always require professional legal review, including advice in your home country.

Medical care

All IVF treatment, embryo transfer, pregnancy monitoring, and delivery are carried out by experienced fertility specialists and accredited medical facilities that follow international standards of care. Pregnancy monitoring may include ultrasounds, standard screening tests, genetic testing, and regular assessments to support the health of the surrogate and the pregnancy. Tammuz coordinates this care, while medical decisions and outcomes depend on the medical team and each individual pregnancy.

Surrogates

The surrogates in the Colombia program are carefully screened women based in Bogotá who have previously had at least one healthy pregnancy and birth. Screening may include medical and psychological assessment, background checks, lifestyle declarations, and a social-worker home visit. Throughout the pregnancy, surrogates continue living at home with their families and receive ongoing medical monitoring and support.

Egg donation

Egg donors in the Colombia program complete comprehensive medical and psychological screening before joining, which may include genetic, hormonal, infectious-disease, reproductive, and psychological assessments. Intended parents receive donor information to support their decision. The specific details available to you — including donor anonymity and any donor images — are confirmed with your coordinator and depend on program rules and applicable regulations.

 

Legal support

Legal guidance is provided throughout the process, including the surrogacy agreement, birth registration, parental documentation, and assistance with the documents required after birth. Parentage and travel documents are handled through defined legal processes and are not automatic; your case is reviewed by qualified legal professionals.

Colombia Program: FAQs

Possible additional expenses may include international travel, accommodation, food, document translation, apostilles, home-country legal advice, exceptional medical treatment, extended neonatal care, and services excluded by the agreement.

Yes. Through sperm-washing technology, safe fertilization can be performed. Whether the procedure and any additional testing are appropriate is determined by the medical team.

Sperm washing is a laboratory technique used to separate sperm cells from other components of semen before assisted reproduction. For an intended father living with HIV, the medical team determines whether this procedure and any additional testing are appropriate.

There is no single destination that is best for every family. The right program depends on legal eligibility, family structure, budget, genetic-material needs, medical history, desired level of legal certainty, travel requirements, and personal priorities.

The journey generally includes an initial assessment, selection of the appropriate program, creation or transfer of embryos, matching with a gestational surrogate, embryo transfer, pregnancy monitoring, birth, and the post-birth legal and documentation process. Tammuz coordinates the medical, legal, logistical, and personal elements through a dedicated program team.

Tammuz coordinates the journey through one program structure, including medical coordination, surrogate matching, legal support, pregnancy updates, travel guidance, birth preparation, and post-birth assistance.

It depends on whether sperm or eggs must be collected locally, whether embryos already exist, whether appointments can be completed remotely, and the requirements around the birth. Many families should expect at least one medical trip when necessary and a separate stay around the birth.

Preparation of the agreement with the surrogate, registration of the child after birth, and removal of the surrogate’s name from the birth certificate (severing the link). The CELAGEM legal team also assists the parents with the exit process from the country.
