Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about IVF in Netherlands.

Yes, gay couples can pursue IVF and parenthood in the Netherlands, with various legal pathways and practical considerations available.

Clinics in the Netherlands offer IVF treatment to gay couples, utilizing donor eggs and/or sperm when needed, and these donors are screened for infectious diseases according to Dutch legislation. Altruistic surrogacy is also legal, though commercial surrogacy is not, and intended parents may need to petition the court to establish legal parenthood for children born through surrogacy before the child’s birth.

For male same-sex couples, establishing legal parenthood often requires a more active legal process, and options include adoption and guardianship in addition to surrogacy, while adoption is also a pathway for same-sex couples, with both joint and stepchild adoption permitted.
