The person or couple who wants to have a child through surrogacy and who will be the child's parent. It is often shortened to IP. ### Who can do surrogacy in Colombia? Heterosexual couples, same-sex male couples, single men and single women, living in Colombia or abroad. In the first consultation we review the medical and legal conditions of your case. ### Is surrogacy legal in Colombia? There is no law in Colombia that prohibits it. The Constitutional Court has recognized it in several rulings since 2009 and has urged Congress to regulate it; bills are under debate. That is why we work with partner lawyers and clear contracts for everyone involved. ### Do I need to live in Colombia? No. We support families who live in other countries, with a host, transfers, accommodation and a platform to follow the pregnancy from afar. ### How long does the program take? Approximately 18 to 20 months of support, including preparation, pregnancy and the time after birth. ### How long does surrogate matching take? \[Average matching time — to be confirmed with the team.\] ### How is the surrogate selected? She goes through an initial consultation, lab tests, a specialist appointment, a psychological assessment, a hysteroscopy and home visits by a social worker. We also carry out a safety review of her household and support network. ### Can I meet the surrogate before we start? Yes. You meet in person or virtually before moving forward. ### When can I talk to the surrogate? From the appointment that confirms the heartbeat we open communication between you, always supported by our team. ### Which fertility clinic performs the treatment? We work with partner clinics in Colombia: Grupo Inser, Celagem, Fertivida, US Colombia Fertility Center and Lucena Cecolfes. ### Can I use donor eggs? Our partner clinics have egg donation programs. The right treatment for your case is defined by the specialist at the medical consultation. ### Can I bring my embryos from another country? \[Confirm with partner clinics whether they accept frozen embryos from abroad and under what conditions.\] ### How do I follow the pregnancy if I am not in Colombia? On our private platform you see week-by-week updates, ultrasounds, heartbeat recordings and appointments, and you can message the team. ### Who goes with the surrogate to her check-ups? Our team goes with her in person to appointments, tests and important events during and after the process. ### What happens when the baby is born? One of our nurses stays with you for the first three days, Dr. Sebastián Calderón follows up on the baby, we arrange the baby's health coverage and we hand you a diaper bag with the essentials. ### How is the baby registered? We guide you through the civil registration in Colombia, and our partner lawyers advise you on recognition in your home country before you start. ### Where do I stay in Bogotá? We offer partner hotels such as Holiday Inn Express Parque 93, Hotel Grand Park and Radisson Bogotá Metrotel, as well as well-located furnished apartments. ### How much does surrogacy in Colombia cost? Every program is personalized. We share the full details at your free first consultation. ## Let's talk about your family. Your first consultation is free, with no commitment.
