Canadian Citizenship for Babies Born via Surrogacy

When your baby is born in Canada, they automatically receive the rights and protections of a Canadian citizen — one of the most secure citizenships in the world.
For intended parents, this adds an extra layer of peace and pride to their journey.

At Surrogacy4All, we help parents navigate every step — from birth registration to passport issuance — with full legal and medical coordination.

Understanding How Citizenship Works

Under Canadian law:

  • Every child born on Canadian soil (except children of foreign diplomats) is automatically a Canadian citizen.
  • Citizenship is granted regardless of the parents’ nationality, making it ideal for international intended parents.
  • The surrogate is not recognized as the legal mother after a parentage order is issued.

Required Documents

Parents will need:

  • Medical and birth records from the hospital
  • Surrogacy agreement and parentage court order
  • Letter from the fertility clinic confirming genetic relationship (if applicable)
  • Proof of identity for both parents

Surrogacy4All’s legal team prepares all paperwork before delivery, ensuring a smooth transition.

Why This Matters for Families

Canadian citizenship offers:

  • A secure passport with visa-free access to over 180 countries
  • Eligibility for healthcare and education (if parents choose to stay)
  • Lifetime citizenship by birthright

Linking Citizenship and Fertility

Many parents choose Canada not just for its legal clarity but also for its advanced fertility programs and ethical surrogate care.
