SURROGACY/GESTATIONAL CARRIERS IN MICHIGAN

On April 1, 2025, The Assisted Reproduction and Surrogacy Parentage Act, which was passed in 2024, takes effect. This statute permits Gestational Surrogacy in Michigan and recognizes the Intended Parents as the resulting child’s sole legal parents. The Act also requires the State Registrar to issue an amended birth certificate consistent with a parentage judgment order.

​

The surrogate must be at least 21 years old, have given birth to at least one child, complete both medical and mental health evaluations, and provide informed consent.​
