Exclusively with Tammuz:
Surrogacy in Colombia is available to same-sex couples, and single men who are looking for a more affordable option.
Further details are in the Legal Services section below.
Join us to explore and learn about the Colombia program!
The Surrogates
Our surrogates are Colombian women based in Bogotá, carefully selected through an extensive and thorough screening process. To qualify, they must have experienced at least one successful pregnancy resulting in the birth of a healthy baby.
Throughout their pregnancy, the surrogates live at home with their families, maintaining their usual lifestyles. They are closely monitored by our clinic, which adheres to Western medical standards. Regular check-ups, customary pregnancy tests, and periodic blood work are conducted to ensure both their health and the progress of the pregnancy remain optimal. The support granted to the surrogates throughout the journey enables them to build a more secure future for themselves, their children, and their families.
The Egg Donors
Our egg donors are anonymous local Colombian women who undergo the egg retrieval procedure at our clinic in Bogotá. Every Tammuz Family egg donor is carefully selected following thorough psychological and medical screenings. Intended Parents (IPs) are provided with comprehensive information about the donor, including her genetic profile, medical and family medical history, educational background, employment record, personal interests and hobbies, as well as a selection of recent photographs.
The Clinic – CELAGEM Clinic
All IVF procedures, including embryo transfers, are conducted at Celagem Clinic, located in one of Bogotá’s most prestigious areas within a modern, state-of-the-art medical facility. The clinic is a leading center for reproductive medicine, where a highly skilled team—including the medical director, lab personnel, geneticists, nursing staff, psychologist, and coordinators—collaborates to deliver exceptional care to our Intended Parents. The team is bilingual, ensuring that all questions and concerns can be addressed in both Spanish and English. Pregnancy monitoring is also carried out at Celagem Clinic, ensuring continuity of care throughout the journey.
Pedro Martinez
We collaborate with Pedro Martinez, a distinguished embryologist in Colombia who has helped thousands of parents navigate their IVF journeys over the past 20 years. As an innovator in reproductive medicine, he has founded 10 health institutions, including fertility clinics and genetics and molecular biology laboratories in Venezuela, Colombia, Argentina, Mexico, and the Dominican Republic.
Pregnancy Protocols
The pregnancy protocols adhere to rigorous Western standards to ensure the health and well-being of both the surrogate and the baby. These protocols include monthly ultrasounds, nuchal translucency scans, glucose tolerance tests (GTT), anomaly examinations, and other essential assessments throughout the pregnancy.
Legal Services
We collaborate with Celagem’s in-house legal team, who are dedicated to providing expert guidance and support to our Intended Parents throughout every step of their surrogacy journey in Colombia. Their services include drafting the legal agreement between the Intended Parents and the surrogate, as well as ensuring the baby’s registration is completed efficiently after birth.

Surrogacy for HIV+ Intended Parents
Tammuz Family is proud to offer specialized programs for individuals and couples living with HIV, made possible through advanced fertility technologies. These programs allow HIV+ Intended Parents to safely undergo IVF and conceive healthy children.
The process begins with Intended Parents traveling to Bogotá, where they undergo specific tests at the clinic prior to the sperm-washing procedure. Sperm washing, an internationally recognized and safe technique, is then carried out.
In May 2017, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reviewed data from 11,500 assisted conception cycles using sperm washing. The reports confirmed that no women or offspring contracted HIV, leading the CDC to officially endorse the safety of the procedure. This ensures peace of mind and the highest level of safety for all parties involved.
Surrogacy Plans
Our surrogacy plans offer comprehensive coverage, including all medical and legal procedures, as well as health insurance for both the surrogate and the baby. This coverage extends to hospitalization, neonatal ICU care, and any medical complications that may arise.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the “Guarantee Plan?”
The Guarantee Surrogacy Program in Colombia is designed to provide peace of mind and financial certainty throughout your surrogacy journey. Under this program, Tammuz Family commits to continuing all stages of the process until the birth of your baby. This means you will not incur any additional costs if it becomes necessary to repeat any stage, such as egg donation, fertilization, matching with a new surrogate, drafting a new legal agreement, or other similar procedures.
What kind of communication will I have with the surrogates in Colombia?
In the Colombia program, communication with the surrogate will be a combination of direct interaction and updates facilitated through the fertility clinic and Tammuz Family. It’s important to set clear expectations regarding communication with both your case manager and the surrogate at the start of the journey to ensure a smooth and mutually comfortable experience.
Communication is mixed – partly direct with the surrogate and partly through the CELAGEM clinic and the Tammuz team. It is recommended to coordinate expectations in advance.
All medical procedures are performed at the leading CELAGEM clinics in Bogotá, from fertilization to embryo transfer. Pregnancy monitoring is also conducted at these clinics. The clinic offers Western standards, personal, professional, and meticulous service, and advanced technology including NGS genetic testing and rigorous pregnancy monitoring.
Colombian women from Bogotá, all of whom are mothers to at least one child, who have undergone medical and psychological screening. They continue their daily lives and are supported by the clinic staff throughout the pregnancy.

Preparation of the agreement with the surrogate, registration of the child after birth, and removal of the surrogate’s name from the birth certificate (severing the link). The CELAGEM legal team also assists the parents with the exit process from the country.
The Guaranteed Program was created to offer IPs peace of mind and financial security. Tammuz commits to continuing the various stages of the process until your baby is born, meaning no additional payment is required if stages need to be repeated (e.g., egg donation, IVF, new surrogate matching, new legal agreement, etc.). There is also an option for a double track (two guaranteed processes simultaneously).
No two families take the same road. Some want the streamlined expediency of a US surrogacy program. Others need the most competitively priced path forward and find it in Colombia or Mexico, where costs can be 40–50% lower without sacrificing quality.
All of our programs in the United States, Mexico, Colombia, Armenia and Georgia are managed directly by Tammuz. Same team. Same standards. Different destinations.
