Specialized legal advice on international surrogacy: country analysis, legal procedures and documentation from start to finish
La gestación subrogada, cuando se lleva a cabo en países con un marco jurídico adecuado, requiere un acompañamiento legal riguroso e independiente. En Intraius gestionamos la totalidad de los trámites jurídicos: desde el análisis del país más favorable hasta la documentación legal definitiva en el país de origen de los padres.
There are countries with legal frameworks favorable to surrogacy that offer real legal guarantees for both the intended parents and the surrogate. However, accessing these countries without specialized legal advice involves considerable risks: contractual, related to parentage, legal recognition in the country of origin, and documentation for the child.
En Intraius ofrecemos asesoramiento jurídico integral en procesos de gestación subrogada internacional. No somos una agencia ni tenemos vinculación comercial con ninguna clínica ni programa. Nuestra única obligación es con nuestros clientes.
A diferencia de las agencias especializadas en gestación subrogada, Intraius no tiene interés comercial en ningún país ni en ninguna clínica. Conocemos en profundidad los sistemas jurídicos, los procedimientos y los tiempos reales de los mercados internacionales donde operamos. Eso nos permite orientar a cada cliente hacia la opción que mejor se adapta a su situación personal, familiar y jurídica.
We evaluate countries with legislation favorable to surrogacy from a strictly legal perspective: stability of the legal framework, international recognition of resolutions, contractual guarantees and viability of the child documentation process.
We assess the client's personal, family, and legal situation. We determine which countries with legislation favorable to surrogacy best suit their profile and circumstances.
Legal analysis of the caseWe inform the client about the legal process in the selected country, the contracts involved in the surrogacy process, the available legal guarantees, and the estimated timeframes.
Legal guidance and planningReal legal representation throughout the process. We handle all the paperwork with local institutions, the consulate, and any other relevant authorities in the country where the surrogacy takes place.
Support in the destination countryWe assist with the legal recognition of parentage resulting from surrogacy in the country of origin, the registration process, and obtaining the final documentation for the child.
Return and recognition in the country of originInternational surrogacy involves decisions with significant legal and personal implications. Advice linked to specific agencies or programs introduces a structural conflict of interest: those with a vested interest in the contracting of a particular program cannot offer neutral guidance.
En Intraius garantizamos que el cliente recibe una orientación basada exclusivamente en su interés, con pleno conocimiento de los riesgos y de las garantías reales que ofrece cada opción de gestación subrogada disponible en el mercado internacional.
In Spain, surrogacy contracts are null and void. However, it is possible to carry out the process in countries where it is legal and subsequently register the child following the legal procedures established by the Supreme Court and the Directorate General for Legal Security.
Registration is usually done through the recognition of a foreign court judgment (exequatur) or through the determination of parentage by the biological father and the subsequent adoption by the spouse.
The entire process typically takes between 12 and 24 months. The legal registration phase after birth is usually completed in a few weeks or months, depending on the country of origin and the relevant consulate.
Countries such as the United States, Canada, and certain European destinations offer solid legal frameworks that guarantee legal security for both the intended parents and the child and the surrogate mother.
While agencies handle logistics and intermediaries, legal counsel is responsible for protecting your rights, validating the legality of each step, and ensuring that parentage is seamlessly recognized in your country of origin.
We offer a prior legal audit of each destination and clinic, support in signing contracts and comprehensive management of documentation to guarantee maximum legal security in your family project.
