Surrogacy Laws in Oregon

Oregon surrogacy laws require that intended parents and surrogates are represented by legal counsel when developing their surrogacy agreement. At Hatch, we can connect you with the best attorneys in reproductive and family law to ensure your protection and a smooth journey ahead.

Surrogacy laws in Oregon recognize gestational surrogacy, egg donation, sperm donation, and embryo donation, making the state a favorable place for family-building.

Oregon state laws are inclusive, allowing for single parents by choice and LGBTQ+ families to pursue surrogacy without discrimination. For families interested in surrogacy, Oregon is a great option due to its progressive laws supporting assisted reproductive technology and third-party reproduction for families.
