Is Surrogacy Legal In Colorado?

In most states, including Colorado, surrogacy is a lawful process. As a surrogacy-friendly state, there are specific laws that support both gestational and traditional surrogacy arrangements. This helps to provide a secure surrogacy process for intended parents and surrogates alike.

Gestational Surrogacy

In gestational surrogacy, the surrogate carries a child conceived through assisted reproduction using the egg and sperm of the intended parents or donors. It is useful when the parents cannot carry a pregnancy to term.

The Colorado Surrogacy Agreement Act provides consistent standards and safeguards for all parties involved in gestational surrogacy.

Traditional Surrogacy

This type of surrogacy works a little differently. The surrogate, in this case, is also the biological mother of the child, contributing the egg. Traditional surrogacy is legal in Colorado but carries more potential complications due to the surrogate’s biological connection to the child.

In traditional surrogacy, the intended parents must often go through additional legal steps to establish their parental rights.

Are There Advantages To Surrogacy In Colorado Versus Other U.S. States?

Colorado is an extremely surrogacy-friendly state, offering several possible benefits that might not be available elsewhere:

  • Legal benefits: The Colorado Surrogacy Agreement Act provides robust legal protections for all parties.
  • Pre-birth benefits: Court orders can streamline the process, giving intended parents legal recognition and rights before birth.
  • Medical benefits: Advanced fertility clinics, innovative ART professionals and a supportive legal and medical environment help make parenthood a possibility for many.

These advantages make Colorado an ideal location for surrogacy, providing peace of mind and legal certainty for intended parents and surrogates.
