Surrogacy is Legal in Colorado

When it comes to surrogacy, Colorado has one of the best judicial systems in the country. Courts routinely grant pre-birth parentage orders to intended parents before the baby is delivered, which significantly benefits the intended parents, avoiding a lengthy and pricy legal process. Additionally, all types of surrogacy are legal in Colorado. Gestational surrogacy is generally preferred, but traditional surrogacy is also legal in the state. Not all states allow for both gestational and traditional surrogacy, so check with legal counsel if you are from outside of Colorado.

Same-Sex, LGBTQ+, and Single-Parent-Friendly Surrogacy

A typical motivator for surrogates is providing the gift of life to an intended family. Same-sex and single-parent families benefit from this the most. Colorado allows for any couple, regardless of sex, gender, or marital status be listed as the legal parents on the birth certificate, as long as at least one of them provided genetic material. Single parents can also be named, even if they aren’t genetically related to the baby.
