Become A Surrogate in Texas

Gestational surrogacy can be a gratifying and positive experience for both the intended parents and surrogate mother, primarily when you employ a Rite Options surrogacy agency. At Rite Options, we manage all the legal, emotional, medical and financial aspects of the surrogacy journey. Many women decide to become Texas surrogate mothers because they find it rewarding to help a couple/individual who cannot have children on their own. Hence, there is a lot of hope that fuels the surrogacy process. 

When a woman decides to become a gestational surrogate in Texas, an agreement is signed between the surrogate mother and the intended parents after a potential surrogate mother passes a comprehensive medical and psychological and background checks. This is called a gestational agreement. A gestational surrogate will carry a baby/babies for the intended parents that are not genetically related to the surrogate. A gestational mother will receive an excellent financial compensation/package for her assistance in this incredible surrogacy journey. 

Surrogacy Laws in Texas

In Texas, there are specific laws that enable intended parents to obtain legal parental rights to the baby born out of their legal agreement with the gestational surrogate. There are two critical aspects of Texas’ gestational carrier laws:
 

 -The intended parent(s) have the constitutional right to seek a written agreement from the gestational surrogate and to get the court to validate this agreement. 

- The agreement can state that the legal parents of the baby born under this gestational agreement are the intended parent(s).

In addition, Texas requires health insurance providers must cover some aspects of the surrogacy such as in vitro fertilization procedures. Each insurance plan varies, and Rite Options agency will look into this matter with scrutiny. 

The entire surrogacy journey in Texas will vary in cost from $100,000 to $150,000.
