Albania is a popular surrogacy destination for same-sex couples, singles, and heterosexual couples due to medical and fertility tourism. The country is conveniently located in Europe and allows easy travel from various parts of the world. Continue reading to learn about the process, costs, and legislation of surrogacy in Albania.
Surrogacy law in Albania is currently unregulated, and potential supportive legislation is under review. Albanian legislation does not specify whether it is permitted for gay couples to become parents through surrogacy either. At the same time, surrogacy agreements are legally binding, and courts will uphold them if both parties sign in good faith and with the advice of an attorney.
There is one legal limitation concerning surrogacy in Albania: only gestational surrogacy is permitted where the surrogate is not biologically related to the child. In this case, the biological material from intended parents or donors is used to create embryos, which are then transferred into a surrogate’s uterus.

Meanwhile, our legal team will work on a legal contract outlining the surrogacy arrangement's rights, responsibilities, expectations, and compensation.
Then, skilled embryologists will fertilize the eggs with sperm, creating embryos with the potential to develop into healthy babies. The resulting embryo(s) is/are then transferred to your surrogate's uterus, marking the start of the pregnancy. Throughout this critical phase, we provide regular monitoring and medical care to maximize the chances of a successful pregnancy.
Are you looking for international egg donors?

Albania is one of the few countries where commercial surrogacy is not prohibited by law, which makes the process smoother for intended parents. This is one of the reasons why Albania has been at the top of the list for people pursuing surrogacy.
Commercial or compensated surrogacy assumes that the surrogate receives additional payment for her services apart from expenses during pregnancy.
