Furthermore, it is also necessary to be correctly informed about how the parentage and nationality of the baby will be recognized – a task which we perform for the families.

Unlike in other countries, the law in Mexico allows all family models to carry out a surrogacy process.
Parentage is certified by a legal document confirming the baby’s paternity on the part of the intended parents and removes any right of the gestational surrogate and her husband, where applicable, regarding the baby.
For legal purposes, what is important is where the contract is signed, where the gestational surrogate resides and where the birth takes place. Therefore, people who reside in a country in which the contract is not valid may benefit from the policies of countries where it is not, as is the case with Mexico.
