Globalisation: US firm offers surrogacy in India, for Aussies
Sunday, 09.07.2008, 11:07pm (GMT-7)

NEW DELHI: The procedural wrangles that a Japanese father found himself facing may not really be a dampener for aspiring couples wanting a child. True to the spirit of globalization, a US firm is offering Australians affordable gestational surrogacy and egg donation services in India.

"Australian surrogacy requires a deft approach. With our complete, end-to-end services, Proactive Family Solutions(PFS) removes the guesswork of foreign surrogacy and stands together with Australians every step of the way, through the extensive relationships of its parent company, One World United, PFS has access to a broad network of world-class doctors and hospitals" explains Mendel Zilberberg, president and CEO, of US-based One World United.

"Additionally, PFS has addresses all foreign travel, including immigration-related issues such as birth certificates and passports for the parents and newborn, assuring smooth travel to and from India. Working with PFS, Australian families can focus on family matters rather than mundane travel logistics and the complicated travel arrangements for the newborn," Zilberberg said in a press release distributed by Asianet.

While the Australian government examines the issue of surrogacy domestically, PFS offers a viable alternative to prospective parents who wish to start their families sooner rather than later. Fertility tourism is on rise in India where it can be outsourced cheaply, safely and legally.

A process of surrogacy costs around $50,000 in the US while in India it's readily available cheap at $10,000 thus making India a hotspot for the business. Surrogacy was legalized in India in 2002 and has become a lucrative idea for many to make easy money.

The business has picked up in India compared to other countries as women donors are found aplenty in India, the bills are nominal which can be paid online through a credit card and the number of embryos a doctor can plant in a woman's womb not strictly monitored unlike other countries, say experts.
