Kyrgyzstan law permits commercial surrogacy and is open to foreign same-sex couples. The updated 2026 policy emphasizes that surrogacy agreements must be notarized, the surrogate mother must be married and have given birth to healthy children, and an ethical review is required before embryo transfer. Same-sex couples, as commissioning parties, enjoy equal legal rights. After birth, the child can obtain a birth certificate listing the commissioning parents' names, and subsequent procedures for establishing parent-child relationships back home require consular authentication.
