Surrogacy Austria - legality

The very first question that interests our clients, what about legality? Is surrogacy allowed by law in Austria? How to combine two incompatible legislations, and at the same time carry out the program strictly in the legal field of Ukraine and Austria?

According to Austrian law, a child’s mother is the woman who gave birth; regardless of the country and jurisdiction where fertilization was performed. Thus, for couples from German-speaking countries (DACH), and especially for Austrian citizens, the best option is to go through all the medical stages of the Surrogacy program in Ukraine and give birth to a baby in the state chosen chosen by them.

According to the offered package of services, a legal contract is concluded for the birth of a child with the help of a surrogate mother in Austria, as well as a separate contract for clinic services in order to carry out a guaranteed program. These official documents protect your rights and legally regulate the obligations of the clinic and the surrogate mother. The main thing is that the child is born in Austria, only after that, the child's documents will be officially confirmed in accordance with the current family and civil code.

Ukraine is one of the few countries in which the law automatically defines genetic parents as legal parents of the child. The competent authorities are obliged to register them as such, in accordance with Article 123, paragraph 2 of the Family Code of Ukraine. To leave Ukraine, foreign citizens need to contact the consulate and then wait for a passport or travel document (Erepass Reisepass)

Heterosexual couples are provided with multi-stage protection of their rights when conducting a surrogacy program Austria, which includes:

• automatic recognition of paternity before the birth of the child;

The responsible body of the Civil Registry Office (Bezirkshauptmannschaft or Rathaus) will be informed of the birth of the newborn within one week. A medical certificate of birth from the clinic where the child was born is automatically sent to the registry office.

State Austrian birth certificate (Geburtsurkunde) contains:

• the child's name;
• the names of the genetic father and mother who gave birth to the child;
• the sex of the child;
• the time of birth;
• the place of birth of the child.
