Why Mexico Is One of Our Most Active Corridors

Mexico has become one of the most sought-after fertility destinations for intended parents from the United States, Canada, and beyond — driven by lower treatment costs, established clinics, and legal frameworks in several Mexican states that accommodate surrogacy and egg donation.


Most of the shipments we manage on this corridor fall into a few common patterns:

  • Create in the US, transfer in Mexico. Intended parents complete an IVF cycle at a US clinic, then ship the resulting embryos to a Mexican clinic for surrogate transfer or their own treatment.

  • Continuing treatment at lower cost. Patients who began a cycle elsewhere move their existing embryos to a Mexican clinic to continue care.

  • Return shipments. Embryos, eggs, or sperm created in Mexico that need to travel back to a patient's home country for storage or future use.

Whichever direction the shipment moves, the regulatory and handling requirements are the same — and that's exactly where we've built our expertise.


The Regulatory Reality: COFEPRIS

Any reproductive material entering or leaving Mexico falls under the authority of COFEPRIS, Mexico's Federal Commission for the Protection Against Sanitary Risks. Without an approved COFEPRIS permit, biological material cannot legally clear customs — and shipments without proper authorization risk delay, confiscation, or loss of viability while held in transit.


We manage the COFEPRIS application process as part of every Mexico shipment we coordinate, working directly with both the originating and receiving clinics to keep documentation moving in step with your treatment schedule. This is one of the most common causes of delay in this corridor, and it's the part of the process we focus on getting right first.


This section is general regulatory information, not legal advice. Requirements can change, and we recommend confirming current details with us directly before beginning treatment.


How We Move Reproductive Material Safely

Validated cryogenic packing. Embryos, eggs, and sperm travel inside a dry shipper charged with liquid nitrogen vapour, maintaining approximately -196°C for the duration of transit without any external power source.

Hand-carry, always. Every shipment is hand-carried in the aircraft cabin by a dedicated courier — never checked as cargo — keeping it under continuous supervision from clinic to clinic.

Do Not X-Ray protocol. We use approved alternative screening methods at every checkpoint to keep reproductive material out of X-ray equipment entirely.

Continuous temperature monitoring. A full temperature log accompanies every shipment, giving both the sending and receiving clinic a complete record on arrival.

Mexico's Fertility Hubs We Serve

City

Why Patients Choose It

Tijuana

Closest major hub to the US border — the most accessible option for patients from California and the western United States

Cancún

Strong direct flight connectivity from major US cities and a well-established private hospital network

Mexico City

Larger multi-specialist fertility centres suited to complex cases and advanced genetic testing

Guadalajara

Growing fertility hub with expanding clinic capacity for international patients

We plan each shipment against its specific destination city — flight routing, transit time, and customs processing point all vary — rather than treating "Mexico" as a single corridor.


What a Mexico Shipment Costs

Pricing depends on route, urgency, and material type, but our transport packages — including customs clearance and COFEPRIS permit handling — start from $11,807. We provide a fixed quote before booking so there are no surprises mid-transit.


Frequently Asked Questions

Can I ship my own embryos to Mexico? Yes. This is a routine, well-established process, provided the shipment is properly permitted through COFEPRIS and handled by a courier with cryogenic and hand-carry expertise.

How long does the COFEPRIS permit process take? Timelines vary by case and clinic responsiveness. We begin the permit process as early as possible in every shipment we coordinate.

Will airport security X-ray my embryos? No. We follow a strict Do Not X-Ray protocol and use alternative screening methods at every checkpoint.

Is it safer to ship as cargo or hand-carry? Hand-carry. Keeping the shipment in the cabin under continuous supervision avoids the handling and temperature risks associated with cargo holds.

Do I need a Mexican clinic confirmed before shipping? Yes — the receiving clinic's authorization and documentation are required for the COFEPRIS permit application, so this needs to be confirmed before the shipment process begins.

Can you help if I haven't chosen a Mexican clinic yet? Yes. We can help coordinate clinic selection alongside your transport plan so the whole journey is managed by one team.
