FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is Surrogacy legal in Argentina?
In October 2024 ruling (CIV 86767/2015/1/RH1 y otros., I. N. c/A., C.L. s/Impugnación de filiación”), the Supreme Court stated:“Given the lack of specific legal regulation regarding a practice that is not prohibited by law, the present decision resolves the case with consideration for the interests of the various parties involved”.

“Thanks to Mario and the BCT team, we are now the proud parents of a baby girl born who was born in New Brunswick in April 2025. Without Mario’s help our little one wouldn’t be here. It’s been a long and at times very stressful journey and we’re so grateful to have Mario’s help, answering all our questions and checking in with us. He was able to connect us to all the right organizations (there were many) at exactly the right time! Navigating the global surrogacy environment from Australia was overwhelming at first and we are so happy to have Mario’s guidance though this complex process.”
