Confirm the cross-border route early
Before starting, consult attorneys in the relevant US state and professionals where you live. Explain family circumstances, gamete sources, birth location, and intended future residence.
Nationality and travel documents
Nationality, passports, and other travel documents follow the laws and administrative requirements effective when applying. Birth location or website information cannot guarantee a nationality or document.
Confirm documents with authorities
Check identification, birth registration, parentage documents, translation, authentication, and any interview. The competent authority determines the application channel and timing.
Allow for changes
Consider additional documents, review, and the baby’s medical needs in travel plans. Do not rely on guaranteed return dates or a fixed number of days.
