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 fixed fee basis for your surrogate child's ILR application. You can ask our solicitors questions online for free immigration advice or book an appointment for detailed consultation regarding your child's ILR application.

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."
