IVF laws in Georgia: age limits, eligibility & donor rules

Georgia permits donor-sperm treatment for single women and IVF with donor eggs or sperm under separate consent provisions. Female-couple access and donor identity-disclosure terms need confirmation. This guide does not establish one numerical IVF age ceiling. Foreign patients should obtain written approval for the exact treatment; IVF access must not be confused with surrogacy eligibility.

Who is eligible for IVF in Georgia?

Health Care Law article 141 expressly permits donor-sperm fertilisation for a single woman with written consent. Article 143 covers IVF with the couple’s or donor gametes and requires the couple’s consent; do not assume that these two pathways have identical eligibility.

  • Heterosexual couples

    Permitted, subject to criteria

    Article 143 requires the couple’s written consent for IVF using their own or donor gametes.

  • Single women

    Permitted, subject to criteria

    Article 141 provides a single-woman donor-sperm pathway. Confirm separately whether the requested IVF or donor-egg method is accepted.

  • Female couples

    Separate assessment required

    The cited national material does not establish eligibility or joint parentage for a female couple. Obtain confirmation of both before arranging treatment.

  • Male couples / surrogacy

    Separate assessment required

    The cited material does not establish a male-couple surrogacy pathway. Treatment access and legal parentage require a separate assessment.
