Birth Certificate & Legal Parentage for International Parents
One of the most important questions for international intended parents is how parentage is documented after the baby is born.
Under Iranian legal procedures, the birth certificate is initially issued through the official civil registration process following delivery. Additional legal documentation and court-supported procedures may be completed to establish and confirm the intended parents’ parental rights for administrative, embassy, and travel purposes.
For international families, the exact requirements can vary depending on the parents’ country of citizenship and the policies of their embassy. Some embassies may request supporting documents such as DNA testing, medical records, surrogacy agreements, or court documentation before issuing a passport or travel documents for the baby.
Our legal team works closely with intended parents throughout this process, helping prepare the necessary documentation, coordinate with relevant authorities, and ensure that all legal and administrative requirements are completed as smoothly as possible.
This support helps international parents obtain the required documents and return home with their baby in the shortest possible timeframe.
After birth, the following steps are usually completed:
Hospital Delivery Documentation
Official hospital and medical delivery records are prepared after birth to begin the documentation process.
Official Birth Certificate Issuance
The baby’s official birth certificate is issued through the appropriate legal and medical authorities in Iran.
Legal Confirmation of Parenthood
Legal procedures are completed to formally confirm and register the intended parents’ full parental rights.
DNA Testing (Embassy Request)
Some embassies may require DNA testing before approving the baby’s passport or travel documents.
Passport & Travel Documents
Parents receive full guidance during the application process for the baby’s passport or temporary travel papers.
Embassy & Paperwork Support
Support is provided for embassy appointments, document preparation, and all required paperwork coordination.
Timeline: 3-4 weeks total • We help prepare documents before birth for a smooth return home

Get answers to the most common questions about surrogacy services in Iran
Can foreigners do surrogacy in Iran?
Yes. Foreign intended parents can pursue surrogacy in Iran provided they meet the legal eligibility requirements. Iran is one of the few countries in the region that accepts international couples for gestational surrogacy through licensed fertility centers and legally recognized agreements. Required documents typically include passports, a marriage certificate, and medical records confirming the need for surrogacy.
Is surrogacy legal in Iran for US citizens?
Yes. Iranian law does not prohibit American citizens from pursuing surrogacy in Iran. Eligible married couples can access surrogacy programs through licensed fertility clinics. However, parents should also consult the requirements of their home country and embassy regarding citizenship, passport issuance, and travel documents for the baby after birth.
Can unmarried couples do surrogacy in Iran?
No. Under current Iranian regulations, surrogacy programs are generally available only to legally married heterosexual couples. A valid marriage certificate is usually required before beginning the surrogacy process.
Can single parents do surrogacy in Iran?
No. At present, surrogacy in Iran is not available to single intended parents. The legal framework is designed for married heterosexual couples who have a documented medical need for surrogacy.
How long do I need to stay in Iran?
Most intended parents do not need to remain in Iran throughout the entire pregnancy. Typically, one visit is required for medical consultations, IVF procedures, or embryo creation, and a second visit is needed close to the baby’s birth for legal documentation, passport processing, and travel arrangements. The exact duration depends on your treatment plan and embassy requirements. In most cases, parents stay several days to a few weeks during each visit.
How do I get my baby's passport?
After birth, the baby’s legal documents and birth certificate are prepared through the appropriate authorities. Depending on your country of citizenship, your embassy may request additional documents such as DNA testing, medical records, or surrogacy-related paperwork. Once the embassy’s requirements are completed, a passport or travel document can be issued, allowing you to return home with your baby. The process usually takes approximately 3–4 weeks.
Is surrogacy cheaper in Iran than Georgia?
Yes. In most cases, surrogacy in Iran is significantly more affordable than surrogacy in Georgia. While Georgia often ranges from approximately $25,000–$40,000 or more depending on the program, many surrogacy programs in Iran start from around $18,000–$28,000 while still providing legal support, IVF treatment, and surrogate matching services. Costs vary based on medical needs, genetic testing, and package selection.
Is surrogacy in Iran safe?
Yes. When performed through reputable fertility centers and experienced reproductive medicine specialists, surrogacy in Iran is considered a safe and medically regulated fertility treatment. Surrogate mothers undergo comprehensive medical, psychological, and legal screening before acceptance into a program. Additionally, fertility clinics operate under the supervision of healthcare authorities and use modern IVF technologies and international treatment standards.
How are surrogate mothers selected and screened?
Our surrogate mothers undergo comprehensive screening including medical examinations, psychological evaluations, background checks, and lifestyle assessments. They must be between 21-35 years old, have had at least one successful pregnancy, and meet strict health and psychological criteria. The matching process considers compatibility and preferences.
What support is provided for international clients?
We provide comprehensive support including: 24/7 English-speaking coordinators, visa assistance, airport transfers, accommodation arrangements, translation services, legal support, medical coordination, and cultural guidance. Our international team ensures smooth communication throughout the entire process.
What is PGS and PGD testing, and do I need it?
PGS (Preimplantation Genetic Screening) tests for chromosome abnormalities, while PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis) tests for specific genetic disorders. These tests increase success rates and reduce miscarriage risk. We recommend PGS for all clients over 35 or with previous pregnancy losses, and PGD for those with family history of genetic disorders.
How many times do I need to visit Iran during the process?
Typically, you’ll need to visit Iran 2-3 times: once for initial consultations and procedures (1-2 weeks), once for embryo transfer (3-5 days), and once for baby delivery (1-2 weeks). We can coordinate remote monitoring and minimize travel requirements based on your specific situation.
Is surrogacy legal in Iran for international clients?
Yes, surrogacy is fully legal in Iran and has been regulated by law since 2003. Iran has one of the most comprehensive legal frameworks for surrogacy in the world, and international clients are welcome. All contracts are legally binding and recognized internationally.
What is the cost of surrogacy in Iran compared to other countries?
Surrogacy in Iran costs between $15,000-$28,000 depending on the package, which is 60-70% less than the USA ($100,000-$150,000) and significantly lower than most European countries. Despite the lower cost, the quality of medical care and success rates are comparable to Western standards.
How long does the entire surrogacy process take?
The complete process typically takes 12-18 months from initial consultation to baby delivery. This includes 2-3 months for preparation and matching, 2-3 months for medical procedures, and 9 months for pregnancy. Our guaranteed packages ensure success within this timeframe.
What is the success rate of surrogacy in Iran?
