Surrogacy Laws in Utah

Gestational surrogacy is legal in the state of Utah.

Utah has established clear legal guidelines supporting gestational surrogacy, allowing both women residing in Utah to become surrogates and intended parents in the state to pursue surrogacy as a family-building option. Utah’s laws recognize and support gestational surrogacy, egg donation, sperm donation, and embryo donation, making it a trusted destination for families looking to grow through assisted reproductive technology and third-party reproduction.

Inclusivity

The state’s inclusive approach ensures that single parents by choice and LGBTQ+ families can pursue surrogacy without discrimination and with full legal protections.

Requirements

Utah requires that intended parents and surrogates each have independent legal counsel and a written agreement in place before starting the surrogacy journey. At Hatch, we connect you with expert reproductive and family law attorneys to guide you every step of the way, ensuring your experience is both secure and supported.
