Surrogacy in Utah:
A Guide for Intended Parents
At Giving Tree Surrogacy, we provide a clear roadmap that simplifies the process—from understanding local legal nuances to connecting with trusted clinics and professionals—so you can focus on what matters most: bringing your baby home.

A Supportive Path to Parenthood in Utah
Utah offers a clear and legally protected path to parenthood for intended parents pursuing gestational surrogacy. The state provides one of the most structured and supportive surrogacy processes in the U.S., ensuring that properly executed gestational surrogacy agreements are valid, enforceable, and recognized by the courts.
Under Utah law, gestational surrogacy is permitted when the agreement is approved by a court before any medical procedures begin. Once validated, the agreement guarantees that the intended parents will be recognized as the legal parents of the child, and the surrogate (and her spouse, if married) will have no parental rights or obligations. After the birth, the court issues a parentage order, directing that the intended parents’ names be placed on the baby’s birth certificate.
Utah’s framework traditionally applies to married intended parents, but single and same-sex intended parents may still pursue surrogacy in the state with qualified legal representation and the court’s discretion. Each party must have independent legal counsel, and the agreement must detail medical responsibilities, compensation terms, and procedures for establishing legal parentage.
Gestational surrogacy, where the surrogate has no genetic link to the child, is the only form of surrogacy recognized and enforceable under Utah law. Traditional surrogacy, in which the surrogate uses her own egg, is not legally supported and is therefore not recommended.
At Giving Tree Surrogacy, we work with experienced Utah reproductive law attorneys to ensure every intended parent’s journey complies with state requirements and proceeds smoothly—from the drafting and court validation of the agreement to the issuance of the baby’s birth certificate.
