About Us
Is Dreams of Parenthood Kyrgyzstan a medical provider?
No. We coordinate project management, intended parent support, and surrogate screening and matching. Fertility medicine is provided by independent providers such as IRMC, and legal matters are handled by independent local counsel.
Is Dreams of Parenthood an official part of IRMC?
No. Dreams of Parenthood Kyrgyzstan is not an official department, subsidiary, or exclusive partner of IRMC. We coordinate with independent fertility care providers on behalf of intended parents.
Do you work with intended parents from China?
Yes. We offer Chinese-language support and a dedicated page for Chinese intended parents covering communication, documentation, and travel considerations. An eligibility review can be conducted in Chinese when needed.
Can single parents or same-sex couples apply?
We work with a range of family structures. Whether a given structure can proceed depends on Kyrgyz law and case-specific factors, which we confirm with our legal partners during an eligibility review rather than stating as a general rule.
Process
What is the difference between the two program types?
One program is for intended parents who already have embryos ready for transfer. The other adds fertility care coordination (IVF, egg donation, or embryo creation) with IRMC before surrogate matching begins. See the Programs page for details.
How long does the whole process take?
Timelines vary based on your starting point, fertility care needs, and surrogate matching. We do not publish a single general timeline; your eligibility review includes a realistic estimate for your case.
Do I need to travel to Kyrgyzstan?
Most intended parents travel at specific points in the process, such as around embryo transfer and around the birth. Our team coordinates scheduling and logistics for these visits.
What does the eligibility review involve, and does it cost anything?
The eligibility review is a confidential, no-obligation conversation where you share your situation — existing embryos, fertility needs, family structure, and timeline — and our team explains how a program could fit. There is no charge for the review itself, and it does not guarantee program acceptance.
What happens if a surrogate pregnancy does not result in a live birth?
We do not guarantee a specific medical outcome. Programs are structured to address the possibility that a cycle or pregnancy does not proceed as hoped; the specific steps depend on your medical situation and are confirmed with the fertility care provider and your legal team. We explain these contours during your eligibility review.
Costs
How much does a program cost?
Costs depend on your specific program and medical needs. A detailed breakdown is provided during your eligibility review once your situation is understood. See the Costs page for how pricing is structured.
Legal
Is surrogacy legal in Kyrgyzstan for international intended parents?
Kyrgyzstan permits gestational surrogacy arrangements under a defined legal process. Specific eligibility depends on citizenship, marital status, and other case-specific factors, and is confirmed with our legal partners before a program begins.
Who handles parentage and travel documents after birth?
Our independent local legal team handles contracts, birth registration, parentage, and travel documentation. We coordinate timing and communication between you and the legal team throughout.
How does the baby leave Kyrgyzstan, and what travel documents are needed?
Birth registration, parentage, and travel documentation are handled by our independent local legal team, with timing coordinated by our staff. The exact documents depend on your citizenship and the child’s, so we confirm the pathway during your eligibility review. See our Legal & Birth Process page for the general outline.
Medical
How are surrogates screened medically?
Prospective surrogates go through a structured screening and matching process coordinated by our team, in partnership with independent medical providers for health evaluations.
Privacy
How do you protect my personal and medical information?
We collect only what you choose to provide through our forms, and we do not ask you to upload passports or medical records through the site — those are arranged through a secure channel later if needed. With your consent we share relevant details only with independent partners (such as the fertility care provider and legal team) strictly to coordinate your program, and we never sell your information. See our Privacy Policy for details.
