How Much Does Surrogacy in Australia Charge?

Adding no line to make one clear about surrogacy in India, Surrogacy in Australia it is needed to keep in mind that India is rising as a forefront in international surrogacy and has been one-stop destination in surrogacy-related fertility tourism. Indian surrogates have been increasingly popular with fertile couples in industrialized nations because of the relatively low cost. Also Indian clinics are going more competitive at the same time, not just in the pricing, but in the retention of Indian females as surrogates.

So Clinics in India for surrogacy treatments charge from patients roughly a third of the price compared to the procedure in the Australia or UK. Though surrogacy in India renders moderately low cost and the legal environment is favorable. In 2008, the Supreme Court of India in the Japanese Baby’s case has held that commercial surrogacy is allowed in India with a direction to the Legislature to surpass an apt Law governing Surrogacy in India.

At present, the Surrogacy Contract between the parties and the Assisted Reproductive Technique (ART) Clinics guidelines seem as the guiding force. By giving due regard to the apex court directions, the Legislature has enacted ART bill, 2008 that is still pending and gets itself expected to come in force somewhere in the next coming year. Specifically, the law commission of India has appraised the Surrogacy Law keeping in mind that India is an International Surrogacy destination.
Yes, International Surrogacy involves bilateral issues, where the laws of both the nations have to be at par else the concerns and interests of parties involved will continue uncertain and thus, providing due regard to the concerns and in order to prevent the commercialization of the Human Reproductive system.

The Law Commission of India has submitted the 228th Report on “Need for legislation to regulate assisted reproductive technology clinics as well as rights and obligations of parties to a surrogacy.” The following observations had been made by the Law Commission: –

  • Arrangement to surrogacy is likely to be governed by contract amongst parties, which will hold all the terms necessitating consent of surrogate mother to bear child, agreement of her husband and other family members for the same, medical procedures of artificial insemination,  reimbursement of all practical expenses to bearing child to full term, motivation to entrust the child born to the commissioning parent(s), etc.
  • A surrogacy arrangement should offer for financial support for surrogate child in the event of death of the commissioning couple or individual before delivery of the child, or divorce between the intended parents and following willingness of none to get delivery of the child.
  • A surrogacy contract should essentially look after life insurance cover for surrogate mother.
  • Legislation itself should know a surrogate child to be the legitimate child of the commissioning parent(s) without being any need for adoption or even assertion of guardian.
  • The birth certificate of the surrogate child should contain the name(s) of the commissioning parent(s) only.
  • Right to privacy of donor as well as surrogate mother should be defended.
  • Sex-selective surrogacy should be forbidden.
  • Cases of abortions should be governed by the Medical Termination of Pregnancy Act 1971 only.
