Altruistic Surrogacy

What Is Altruistic Surrogacy?

Altruistic surrogacy is a process that allows a woman to carry a child for another couple or eligible woman without receiving any financial compensation, except for medical expenses, pregnancy-related costs, and mandatory insurance. The sole purpose of altruistic surrogacy is to help couples or women who are medically unable to conceive or carry a pregnancy.

In India, altruistic surrogacy is legally permitted under the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021, ensuring that the process remains ethical, safe, transparent, and free from commercial exploitation. Surrogate mothers are protected through medical screening, written consent, and compulsory insurance coverage, making altruistic surrogacy a lawful and compassionate path to parenthood.

What Is The Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021?

The Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021 is the primary legislation governing surrogacy in India. It permits only altruistic surrogacy and strictly prohibits commercial surrogacy in any form. The Act defines eligibility criteria for intended parents and surrogate mothers and mandates multiple medical and legal approvals.
