Coronavirus Covid-19 Crisis and International Surrogacy Arrangements

Barry O'Leary

26th March 2020 By Barry O’Leary

We frequently assist parents with the immigration and nationality matters which arise when children are born following international surrogacy arrangements.

We are aware that the  coronavirus covid-19 crisis is causing difficulties for parents whose children are born overseas to surrogate mothers.

We have, with our friends at NGA Law, raised this matter with the Home Secretary. The Home Office have been in contact with us to look to find solutions for children who are born British and those who need to register as British Citizens.

I will update when I have further information but you are welcome to contact me on barry@gryklaw.com

Barry O’Leary is the author of the ‘International Surrogacy and British Nationality and Immigration Law chapter in “Surrogacy: Law, Practice and Policy in England and Wales.”

Described as “the Rolls-Royce of immigration and asylum,” Barry O’Leary is highly valued for his successes with family, partnership, international surrogacy and sexual identity cases. An interviewee says: “He’s a very experienced solicitor who does fantastic work across the board.” – Chambers 2020

“Barry O’Leary is experienced in applications based on partnership and family and in relation to international surrogacy arrangements, while he also handles asylum and human rights claims based on sexual identity.” – Legal 500 2020
