Baby Exit Process after Surrogacy in Georgia
The baby exit process after surrogacy in Georgia involves several legal and administrative steps that vary depending on your home country’s laws. While obtaining the local birth certificate is generally fast and straightforward, the timeline for receiving travel documents and leaving Georgia with your child depends on the specific procedures of your country’s embassy. Each case is unique, but with the right preparation and documentation, the exit process can be smooth and predictable.
Processing times and requirements vary depending on the country of citizenship. Embassies may require appointments to be booked in advance, and some may only process applications on specific days.
Legal Support Options
In Georgia, families can manage the exit process on their own or with legal assistance. Reproart provides all necessary clinic-issued documents and helps obtain declarations from the surrogate where needed.
However, if you prefer legal support, we are happy to connect you with one of Georgia’s most experienced legal teams specializing in surrogacy and family law. These attorneys also serve Reproart and have represented families from the United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and EU countries. They offer legal assistance with the collection and, if necessary, preparation of local documents required for the exit process, during which guidance from legal counsel in the intended parents’ home country is strongly recommended.
Working with a legal team is optional but highly recommended for certain countries or complex citizenship procedures
What if There is No Embassy in Georgia?
If your country does not maintain an embassy or consulate in Georgia, your case may be handled through a nearby diplomatic mission—commonly in Ankara, Istanbul. In such cases, some parents may need to travel to that country to complete passport or citizenship procedures. We strongly recommend confirming this in advance with your country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs or consular services.
You can find the official list of all embassies and consular offices in Georgia, along with their contact information, on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia www.mfa.gov.ge/en
While You Wait
The time between birth and departure may range from a few weeks to over a month. Georgia allows visa-free entry for citizens of over 90 countries, including the United States, EU member states, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, and Canada. Most intended parents can stay in Georgia for up to 365 days without requiring a visa, allowing them to wait for embassy processing in comfort.
During this time, if requested, additional services such as assistance with accommodations, pediatric care coordination, document handling, and general logistical support may be arranged as optional add-on services to the main program.
