In the course of the study, it was found that the demands put forward by legislation to potential genetic parents are following: 1) to have a marriage, registered in the Civil Registration Office; 2) be full-aged capable persons and have medical condition for assisted reproductive technologies in the form of surrogate motherhood. The study analyzes Order of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine "On Authorization of the Order for the Application of Assistive Reproductive Technologies" No. 878, which specifies the requirements for a woman who wants to be a surrogate mother, namely: full age, legal capacity, absence of medical contraindications, the presence of a healthy child and voluntary written consent. It was found which responsibilities belong to the surrogate mother and which to the genetic parents.

It was studied that the Surrogate Motherhood Agreement is civil-legal, bilateral, paid or unpaid and must be drafted in a written form with a mandatory notarial certificate. The study reveals that for today the issue of surrogate motherhood is not regulated by Ukrainian legislation and offers the adoption of a single normative legal act on surrogate motherhood.
