New York is one of the most protective, clearly regulated places in the United States to build your family via gestational surrogacy. This pillar guide explains exactly how the process works in NY—what “licensed” actually means, why FDA registration matters, how to read costs and timelines, what to expect legally under the CPSA, and the practical steps Surrogacy4All’s physician-led team takes to keep your journey safe, transparent, and emotionally supported from consult to homecoming.
In New York, your fastest, safest outcome starts by verifying state licensing, FDA registration, and independent legal counsel before you compare anything else.
Surrogacy4All is a physician-led program that places licensing and FDA compliance at the center of every step. Our model is built around three pillars:
Quick wins you’ll feel: fewer hand-offs, fewer surprises, faster filings, and a calmer pregnancy for your surrogate—because we sequence legal, medical, and insurance work in parallel, not in slow serial order.
Costs vary with embryo readiness, insurance, and medical complexity. Expect a transparent, line-item budget that distinguishes agency, legal, escrow, clinical, and surrogate-related expenses. Typical journey length in NY is 12–18 months from intake to birth. Parallel processing (legal, insurance, screening) can shorten timelines by several weeks.
Consult & Readiness

Compliance Check

Surrogate Matching

Legal Contracts
independent counsel; finalize before meds.
Medication & Transfer
evidence-based protocol; monitoring; embryo transfer at FDA-registered clinic.
Pregnancy Support
OB transition; wellness resources; regular case updates; payments via escrow.
Parentage

Delivery & Homecoming
discharge with parentage docs ready; newborn insurance and pediatric follow-up.
Under New York’s Child-Parent Security Act (CPSA), compensated gestational surrogacy is permitted with explicit protections for the surrogate and the intended parents. You should expect:
Same-sex male couple with two euploid embryos stored at an FDA-registered clinic. After compliance checks and legal prep, they matched with a surrogate in eight weeks. Contracts finalized in 20 days. First transfer succeeded. Their pre-birth order was granted at 30 weeks; they went home 36 hours after delivery. Their success hinged on parallel processing: legal, insurance, and screening moved simultaneously—no idle weeks.
Yes. The CPSA permits compensated gestational surrogacy with defined requirements, including independent legal counsel and a surrogate’s bill of rights.
Most run 12–18 months. Parallel processing of legal, screening, and insurance can shorten the timeline.
Not always. Discuss domicile and birth-state strategy with your agency and attorney.
Number of IVF cycles, insurance specifics, travel, multiples, and medical complexity.
