On April 1st, 2024, Governor Whitmer signed the Michigan Family Protection Act. Michigan was the last state to criminalize surrogacy contracts, making this a huge win for Intended Parents and Surrogates not only residing in Michigan, but across the country. Previously, only altruistic (uncompensated) surrogacy agreements were permitted in Michigan.
Previously those living in Michigan who wished to pursue third-party reproduction needed to either pursue an altruistic surrogacy arrangement, which is incredibly difficult, or pursue surrogacy in a state that where surrogacy is legal. Some of the previous legal implications caused Intended Parents to have difficulty establishing parentage.
Here's a few things you need to know:
Best practices in surrogacy will be enforced in Michigan. This includes legal protections, ensuring surrogates receive fair compensation, and receive a medical screening to evaluate their reproductive help prior to entering into an agreement.
Surrogacy will be legal and regulated in Michigan.
Establishing parental rights as Intended Parents through surrogacy will be much easier.
Children born through surrogacy and IVF receive equal treatment under the law.
Individuals considering becoming a gestational carrier residing in Michigan will now be able to proceed with the process.
If you are an Intended Parent who is now considering surrogacy, here are a few suggested next steps:
Contact your fertility clinic to learn more about their procedures and policies for surrogacy.
