Key highlights of CPSA surrogacy law:
This marks a major shift in New York’s approach to modern family building.
Under CPSA guidelines, New York allows a wide range of intended parents to pursue surrogacy.
These requirements ensure legal clarity and protection throughout the surrogacy process.
To participate as a surrogate in New York under CPSA regulations, candidates must meet strict eligibility standards designed to protect health, safety, and legal rights.
These protections ensure that surrogates are fully supported medically, legally, and financially throughout the journey.
New York is widely recognized as one of the most carefully regulated surrogacy states in the United States. The Child-Parent Security Act (CPSA) was created to expand access to surrogacy while maintaining strong ethical and legal protections for all parties involved.
Unlike states with fewer regulations, New York requires separate legal counsel for each party, strict medical and insurance standards, enforceable surrogacy contracts under state law, and clear parentage orders established at birth. This structured system creates a higher level of security and clarity for both Surrogates and Intended Parents.
