Approximately 1.5-2.5 million RMB
U.S. costs vary materially by state, insurance, medical plan, legal work and pregnancy events. Law and medical resources are not uniform nationwide; review eligibility, contracts, parentage procedure, birth documents, insurance and return-home planning for the specific state and case.
Article 104 of the Citizen Health Protection Law is a starting point, but it does not by itself prove that every foreign intended parent can proceed. Independent local counsel, the clinic and the notary should confirm current implementation, identity and medical conditions, contract effect, parentage, birth registration and return-home documents in writing.
Marital or partner status, medical conditions, clinic policy, contracts, parentage and birth registration should be checked under current law and practice. Nationality, travel documents and registration in the family's destination country require separate review.
States differ on contract enforcement, parentage procedure, eligibility and birth documents. Independent counsel in the programme state should confirm applicable law, the parentage order or judgment, insurance and hospital documents; nationality and return-home registration require separate advice in the destination jurisdiction.
The ranges on this page are FS editorial planning ranges for preliminary screening, not official market averages, fixed packages or outcome promises. Quotations often place medical, pregnancy, legal and contingency costs in different categories. A lower headline figure may reflect narrower scope or deferred risk.

Budget comparison does not establish eligibility. Use the legal-country comparison for route screening and the China return-document guide for document planning.
There is no single official global database of surrogacy prices. These ranges place three destinations in one preliminary budget framework; they are not market averages, package prices or outcome promises. Before a decision, obtain dated clinic plans, third-party fee schedules, legal opinions, insurance terms and service contracts that identify inclusions, exclusions and contingency triggers.
For the separate question of which families may enter which route, use the legal-country decision guide. This page is limited to cost structure and budget comparison.
