To qualify, the child's legal parents must
be British Citizens or settled persons in the UK. The application for ILR can only be submitted after the
parents have obtained a parental order, establishing them as the child's legal parents. The application
must meet the criteria set out in paragraph 298 of the Immigration Rules.
Our team of specialist child visa solicitors provides expert immigration advice and representation on a

Applying for a Parental Order After Birth
Once your surrogate child is born, you need to become the child's legal parent. More information can be
found online under "Surrogacy: legal rights of parents and surrogates."
A Parental Order in England and Wales can only be granted by the court after the child has arrived in the
UK. According to sections 54 and 54A of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act 2008, at least one
intended parent (or the sole applicant in case of single parents) must be domiciled in the UK, the
Channel Islands, or the Isle of Man, and the child must live with the intended parents in the UK at the
time of the Parental Order application. Additionally, at least one parent must have a genetic link to the
child. Various other conditions must be met.
The process differs if you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland. Detailed guidance is available in
"Surrogacy: legal rights of parents and surrogates."
