Surrogate experience
Surrogacy type
Gestational: no genetic link to the child. Traditional: uses your own egg.
New Zealand uses a different modelCommercial surrogate compensation is prohibited. The estimate shows current surrogacy pathway and treatment costs rather than payment to the surrogate.
Greece has a court-authorised modelCommercial payment is prohibited. Current rules provide specified compensation/reimbursement only after the required court authorisation, and current eligibility includes Greek residency requirements.
South Africa has a High Court-authorised modelCommercial surrogate compensation is prohibited. The agreement must be confirmed by the High Court before fertilisation. Permitted claims are limited to direct surrogacy expenses, actual loss of earnings and qualifying insurance.
Israel uses an Approval Committee modelThe surrogacy agreement and all payments must be approved in advance by the Ministry of Health Approval Committee. Only committee-approved payments may be made. The surrogate must meet current Ministry eligibility rules, including Israeli residency and being at least 22 and under 39 when the agreement is approved.
Ukraine permits compensated gestational surrogacyCompensation is agreed individually and recorded in the notarised agreement. Eligibility restrictions apply. Check current security and travel conditions before proceeding.
Georgia (country) has an established gestational-surrogacy frameworkGeorgian law expressly recognises embryo transfer to a surrogate in specified circumstances and treats the intended couple as the child’s parents. Compensation is contractual rather than a statutory national tariff, so current programme figures are shown as market benchmarks.
Kazakhstan permits compensated surrogacy for eligible domestic couplesSince 26 July 2026, commissioning parents must be married citizens of Kazakhstan. The surrogacy contract must be written and notarised, and compensation and expense terms are set by contract.
The Kazakhstan calculator uses published starting amounts and contractual cost examples rather than presenting them as statutory national tariffs.
Surrogate compensation in Kazakhstan in 2026
The Kazakhstan calculator uses published starting amounts and contractual cost examples rather than presenting them as statutory national tariffs. The interactive calculator above uses the country-specific figures and selections currently represented on this page and updates the result as you change the available options.
Planning estimate: figures on this page are not guaranteed payments or legal advice. Actual expenses, reimbursement, loss of earnings, insurance, eligibility and agreement terms depend on the applicable law and individual circumstances.
First-time and experienced
The calculator uses starting compensation of ₸7,000,000 for first-time and ₸8,000,000 for experienced surrogates.
Contractual maintenance
Maintenance expenses are set by the individual notarised agreement and are not assigned an unsupported fixed monthly amount in the headline estimate.
Twins and insurance
The tool uses a multiple-birth example starting from ₸1,000,000 and an insurance range of ₸20,000–₸200,000.
Eligibility context
The calculator states that since 26 July 2026 commissioning parents must be married citizens of Kazakhstan and the contract must be written and notarised.
Kazakhstan surrogacy estimate explained
The sections below explain how this page's estimate is constructed and how to interpret the figures shown in the calculator.
How the Kazakhstan estimate is built
The calculator uses a published starting amount of ₸7,000,000 for a first-time surrogate or ₸8,000,000 for an experienced surrogate. Maintenance expenses remain contract-specific rather than being assigned a fixed monthly amount in the headline estimate.
How twins change the estimate
Selecting twins adds a published multiple-birth example starting from ₸1,000,000. The tool labels this as provider pricing rather than a statutory national twins tariff.
Insurance and variable costs
The calculator separately shows a published insurance range of ₸20,000–₸200,000. Pregnancy and birth medical expenses, travel and housing remain actual or contract-specific rather than being forced into a fixed total.
Why the headline says 'from'
The compensation and maintenance figures are published starting amounts, not a typical-to-high national range. The individual notarised contract can therefore differ from the calculator's planning example.
How to use the Kazakhstan estimate
Start with the country-specific headline figure, then review the detailed rows underneath it. Fixed or published amounts are shown separately from actual, documented or agreement-specific costs. Change the available calculator selections to see which choices genuinely affect the estimate rather than assuming every option creates additional payment.
The currency switcher changes how supported monetary values are displayed; it does not change the underlying published amount, contract terms or reimbursement rules.
Important: this is a planning tool. It should be used to understand the components of a possible surrogacy budget, not as a quotation, guaranteed payment or substitute for jurisdiction-specific professional advice.
How surrogacy works legally in Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan recognises compensated surrogacy through a written, notarised surrogacy agreement. The legal framework addresses the parties to the agreement, the surrogate's eligibility and the financial obligations that must be dealt with contractually. The calculator therefore separates legal requirements from commercial provider pricing rather than presenting provider figures as government-set rates.
Following amendments effective 26 July 2026, the commissioning parents must be married citizens of Kazakhstan. Because this is a significant eligibility restriction, international users should not interpret the compensation figures on this page as evidence that they are eligible to enter a Kazakhstan surrogacy arrangement.
Kazakhstan surrogate compensation breakdown for 2026
The table distinguishes published provider starting amounts from actual or contract-specific costs. These figures are market examples, not statutory national tariffs.
Payment item
Published example
How to interpret it
First-time surrogate compensation
From ₸7,000,000
Published provider starting amount; not a national average or legal minimum.
Experienced surrogate compensation
From ₸8,000,000
Published provider starting amount; individual contracts can differ.
Multiple-birth compensation
From ₸1,000,000 additional
Published provider example; not a statutory twins tariff.
Insurance
₸20,000–₸200,000
Published provider range; actual policy and premium can differ.
Pregnancy / birth medical expenses
Actual / contract-specific
The agreement and applicable legal obligations control the actual costs.
Travel / housing where required
Actual / contract-specific
Not forced into the fixed headline estimate.
Maintenance note: earlier versions of this calculator used ₸50,000 per month as a ten-month provider planning example. Because the strongest current public evidence identified for this review supports the compensation, multiple-birth and insurance figures more clearly than that maintenance amount, the calculator no longer adds a fixed monthly-maintenance figure to the headline total. Maintenance expenses remain contract-specific.
Who can enter a surrogacy arrangement in Kazakhstan?
The Kazakhstan framework contains eligibility requirements for both the commissioning spouses and the surrogate. Since 26 July 2026, commissioning parents must be married citizens of Kazakhstan. The surrogacy agreement must be written and notarised.
The legal framework also sets requirements for a surrogate, including age, health and reproductive-history criteria. Eligibility is therefore more than a compensation question: the parties should verify the current statutory requirements and medical documentation before treatment or signing an agreement.
The notarised agreement should address the financial obligations required by Kazakhstan law, including maintenance expenses and compensation, rather than relying on a calculator estimate or provider advertisement alone.
Kazakhstan surrogacy sources and methodology
The Kazakhstan page separates primary legal material from commercial programme pricing. Legislation is used for eligibility, contract and legal-framework statements; provider material is used only for compensation and other market examples.
Surrogate Mother Kazakhstan — published price list Provider pricing supporting the multiple-birth example starting from ₸1,000,000 and the ₸20,000–₸200,000 insurance range represented by this calculator.
Methodology & source note — reviewed September 2026: Kazakhstan legislation is used for legal and eligibility statements. Commercial provider material is used only for market-pricing examples. The ₸7,000,000 and ₸8,000,000 figures are published starting amounts, not national averages, statutory minimums or guaranteed payments. The ₸1,000,000+ multiple-birth and ₸20,000–₸200,000 insurance figures are likewise provider examples. Maintenance, medical, travel, housing and other costs should be checked against the individual notarised agreement and current legal requirements.
Compare surrogate compensation and expenses by country

Common questions about the Kazakhstan estimate, costs, payments and expenses shown on this page.
What does this Kazakhstan calculator estimate?
The calculator uses starting compensation of ₸7,000,000 for first-time and ₸8,000,000 for experienced surrogates.
What other costs or adjustments are shown for Kazakhstan?
The calculator shows a published multiple-birth example starting from ₸1,000,000 and an insurance range of ₸20,000–₸200,000. Maintenance, medical, travel and housing costs remain contract-specific.
How does the calculator handle individual circumstances?
The headline estimate includes only the published starting compensation and, when selected, the published multiple-birth example. Maintenance, pregnancy and birth medical expenses, travel, housing and other costs remain contract-specific, while the published ₸20,000–₸200,000 insurance range is shown separately rather than being added automatically to the headline total.
Is the Kazakhstan estimate guaranteed?
No. It is a planning estimate based on the figures and legal context represented in this calculator. Actual payments, reimbursements, eligibility and agreements can differ.
Does the calculator account for twins or multiples?
Yes. Selecting twins or multiples adds a published Kazakhstan provider example starting from ₸1,000,000. This is commercial provider pricing rather than a statutory national multiple-birth tariff, and the individual notarised contract can differ.
Should I get legal advice before relying on the estimate?
Yes. Surrogacy rules and enforceability can depend on jurisdiction and individual circumstances, so the calculator should not replace country- or region-specific legal advice.
