Whether you are an individual or a couple, we eliminate financial barriers to make surrogacy more attainable.

THE FAMILIES WITHOUT
BORDERS DIFFERENCE
At Families Without Borders, we believe that building a family should never come at the cost of integrity or compassion. While cost-effectiveness is essential for many intended parents, our commitment to ethical surrogacy practices sets us apart. Unlike many agencies in Mexico, we carefully select and support each surrogate, prioritize her wellbeing, and adhere strictly to the legal requirements governing surrogacy. Unfortunately, some agencies cut corners in these areas, leading to lengthy delays in returning home and legal complications that can turn the process into a nightmare for both surrogates and parents. Mexican law, like American law, varies by state and includes specific requirements that must be followed precisely. At Families Without Borders, we ensure that every step of the surrogacy journey is fully compliant, providing you with a responsible, smooth, and supportive path to parenthood.
Yes, Surrogacy in Mexico is now LEGAL!
With recent legal advancements, there are no barriers to starting your family through surrogacy in Mexico.
In 2017, the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation made a groundbreaking decision,recognizing constitutional protection for all types of families, including those formed through Assisted Reproduction Techniques (ART). This paved the way for many to confidently pursue surrogacy.
In November 2023, the Supreme Court of Justice of Mexico took this even further by clarifying that surrogacy is now legal for everyone—same-sex couples, opposite-sex couples, and individuals pursuing parenthood. No matter your situation, surrogacy in Mexico is now fully accessible.
One of the biggest advantages of surrogacy in Mexico is the significant cost savings. While surrogacy in the U.S. often exceeds $200,000, the cost in Mexico starts at around $111,000, offering a more affordable option without compromising on care or service.

TESTAMONIALS…
"After eight years of searching, Families Without Borders was exactly what Michael and I had been looking for. We had been priced out of so many agencies, as surrogacy can be incredibly expensive, and the mounting costs kept pushing our dream further out of reach. We were close to giving up—until we found Brooke. Her transparent and ethical approach made everything feel more personal and grounded, and in that moment, we knew we were finally home."
Tom and Kayla, New York
"We never thought having a baby would be possible for us. Starting a family was our greatest hope, but every path we tried in the United States seemed to end in a closed door. Then, through our attorney, we found Families Without Borders, and though we were nervous, Brooke put us at ease. She guided us through the entire process during our consultation. Full transparency: it comes with its challenges, but the joy at the end makes it all so worth it!"

YOUR PATH TO PARENTHOOD
1. Initial Consultation (1-2 Weeks)
The journey begins with a consultation where you’ll discuss your unique situation, goals, and expectations. You’ll meet with your coordinator to understand the process, costs, legal aspects, and timeline. After this meeting, you can decide to move forward and officially begin the journey.
2. Surrogate Matching and Screening (4-8 Weeks)
We begin the process of matching you with a qualified and compassionate surrogate. Each surrogate goes through extensive medical and psychological screening to ensure they are a good fit. Once a match is made, you’ll have the opportunity to connect with the surrogate before moving forward.
3. Legal Review and Contract Signing (2-4 Weeks)
Once you’ve decided to proceed, you will work with our partnered legal teams to draft and finalize contracts. This ensures that the legal rights of all parties—intended parents and surrogate—are protected. During this phase, you’ll also finalize any required documentation and agree on terms, including compensation, roles, and responsibilities.
-
4. Medical Preparation and IVF Cycle (8-12 Weeks)
Your surrogate will begin medical treatments to prepare for the embryo transfer. Simultaneously, the intended mother or egg donor will go through an IVF cycle if necessary. This includes hormone treatments, egg retrieval (if applicable), and embryo creation. Once the embryos are ready, they are transferred to the surrogate.
5. Pregnancy Confirmation (2-3 Weeks)
After the embryo transfer, you’ll wait about two weeks to confirm the pregnancy
through a blood test. This is an exciting and emotional time, as you’ll receive confirmation that the process is working. If the pregnancy is not successful on the first attempt, additional transfers may be scheduled.
6. Pregnancy Monitoring (9 Months)
Throughout the pregnancy, your surrogate will attend regular medical appointments with our top-tier medical partners in Mexico. You’ll receive regular updates, including ultrasound pictures and reports. Many intended parents choose to visit Mexico during key milestones, such as the 20-week ultrasound. Your dedicated coordinator will ensure you are kept informed and involved every step of the way.
7. Birth Planning and Preparation (1-2 Months Before Birth)
As the due date approaches, you’ll work closely with your coordinator to plan your travel to Mexico. We assist with booking accommodations and preparing for the birth. You’ll be able to meet with the medical team and finalize any details regarding the birth.
8. Birth of Your Baby (Week 40)
Your baby is born in a leading hospital in Mexico. You’ll be present at the birth, and we ensure a smooth transition as you bond with your newborn. The hospital stay typically lasts a few days, and you will have ample time to connect with your baby.
9. Post-Birth Legal and Passport Process (4-8 Weeks)
After your baby’s birth, our legal partners will guide you through the process of securing your child’s birth certificate, passports, and any necessary documentation for citizenship. This step ensures that you can bring your baby home without any legal complications.
10. Return Home with Your Baby (Week 42-44)
Once all the legal paperwork and passport procedures are complete, you’re ready to return home with your baby. Many families take this time to explore Mexico with their newborn before heading back.
Throughout the entire process, we provide personal support and regular updates, ensuring that you feel confident, informed, and well cared for at every step of your surrogacy journey.
