Colombia supports straight couples pursuing surrogacy, with the process tailored to individual circumstances. For those with existing embryos, the most common route is having them transferred. Using donor eggs is also an option if creating embryos yourself isn’t possible.

Many gay couples choose Colombia for several compelling reasons. The country offers equal rights for LGBT families, a warm and inclusive culture, and clear, well-established legal processes that remove any ambiguity around parental rights. In most cases, the entire journey—including egg donor selection and embryo creation—takes place within Colombia.

Many couples choose to have two children within the same timeframe. This approach offers several advantages, along with a few considerations. For gay male couples where each partner wishes to use their own genetic material, it also increases the likelihood of creating biologically related siblings, especially when both embryos are created using the same egg donor.
