Surrogacy in Mexico
We list 29 clinics offering gestational surrogacy across 7 cities in Mexico. Below: what the treatment involves, what it costs, which cities have it, and how to tell two clinics apart.
What Surrogacy costs in Mexico
Typical market range$30,000–$55,000 USD
A published market range for gestational surrogacy in Mexico, not a figure we calculated from these listings — only 3 clinics on this page publishes a price, and the prices we hold are for IVF cycles rather than for this treatment. Quote it as a starting point and get an itemized quote.
Prices are for the procedure as clinics describe it and rarely include medication, which typically adds $1,500–$4,000 to a stimulated cycle. See every price we hold, by city and clinic →
What Surrogacy involves
An embryo created through IVF is carried by a gestational surrogate who has no genetic relationship to the child. The medical part is a standard IVF cycle; the substantial work is legal — matching, contracts, and establishing parentage.
Who it is for
Absent or non-viable uterus, repeated implantation failure or pregnancy loss, medical conditions that make pregnancy dangerous, and male same-sex couples.
How long it takes
18–24 months from matching to birth. Legal process runs alongside the medical one and is the part most likely to determine the timeline.
Before you commit money
Surrogacy law in Mexico is set at state level and has changed repeatedly. A clinic listing surrogacy among its services is not a statement about whether a surrogacy arrangement will be legally recognised for you, in the state where the birth happens, or in your home country. Take independent legal advice in both countries before committing money.
Where to get Surrogacy in Mexico
Every city where we list a clinic offering gestational surrogacy, with what we have confirmed about them. An unmarked clinic is one we have not verified, not one we know to be lacking — see how we check this.

Surrogacy clinics in Mexico
Showing 9 of 29, ordered by how much of each listing we have been able to verify — COFEPRIS accreditation, published price, confirmed English-speaking staff and a street address. Not by who pays us, and not by success rate, which no clinic in Mexico is required to report and which we therefore do not publish.

How this page orders clinics
- COFEPRIS accreditation on file — counted double · 13 of 29
- Publishes a starting price · 3 of 29
- English-speaking staff confirmed · 24 of 29
- Street address on file · 24 of 29
Accreditation counts double because it is the only one of these issued by somebody other than the clinic. Featured clinics are marked with a ribbon and are paying for that mark; it buys placement on the directory listing, not on this page.
Surrogacy in Mexico — common questions
How much does Surrogacy cost in Mexico?
Only 3 of the 29 Surrogacy clinics we list publish a price, so we will not state a figure as our own finding. The published market range for gestational surrogacy in Mexico is $30,000–$55,000 USD — treat that as orientation and ask each clinic for an itemized quote stating what is and is not included.
What does Gestational Surrogacy involve?
An embryo created through IVF is carried by a gestational surrogate who has no genetic relationship to the child. The medical part is a standard IVF cycle; the substantial work is legal — matching, contracts, and establishing parentage. 18–24 months from matching to birth. Legal process runs alongside the medical one and is the part most likely to determine the timeline.
Which cities in Mexico have Surrogacy clinics?
We list Surrogacy in 7 cities. The largest are Ciudad de México (13), Cancún (5), Culiacán (3), Guadalajara (3), Querétaro (3). Choice of city usually matters less than choice of clinic — the price gap between two clinics in one city is routinely wider than the gap between two cities — so most patients pick on flight cost and travel time, then compare clinics within that city.
How do I tell Surrogacy clinics in Mexico apart?
Start with what can be checked. 13 of the 29 clinics we list have COFEPRIS accreditation recorded — COFEPRIS is Mexico's federal health regulator, roughly the FDA's counterpart, and clinics performing assisted reproduction must be registered with it. 24 have confirmed English-speaking staff, and 3 publish a starting price. A clinic without a mark is one we have not confirmed, not one we know to be lacking. Ask for the COFEPRIS registration number, an itemized quote, and whether the doctor you will see speaks English or whether a coordinator interprets.
What are Surrogacy success rates in Mexico?
We do not publish success rates, because there is no source for them we can stand behind. Mexico has no mandatory public outcome reporting comparable to the US SART database, so every figure a clinic quotes is self-reported and uncomparable to the next clinic's. Ask each one for its live-birth rate per embryo transfer, for your age band, for the most recent complete year, and for the number of cycles behind the percentage. A rate without a denominator tells you nothing.
Is Surrogacy legal in Mexico?
Surrogacy law in Mexico is set at state level and has changed repeatedly. A clinic listing surrogacy among its services is not a statement about whether a surrogacy arrangement will be legally recognised for you, in the state where the birth happens, or in your home country. Take independent legal advice in both countries before committing money.
