Legislation has been proposed in Italian Parliament that will effectively criminalize surrogacy for Italian nationals who utilize their surrogacy journey process abroad, including in those jurisdictions that have legalized surrogacy, such as California. The proposal has been approved by the Italian Chamber of Deputies and has passed through the Justice Committee (at the Senate of the Republic), and currently it is still awaiting final discussion and approval by the full Assembly at the Senate.
If this legislation is signed into law, it will be important for Italian Intended Parents to seek an attorney that can provide them with detailed guidance on what they may face upon bringing their baby back home. By understanding the current legal framework, potential risks, and necessary steps; Italian Intended Parents will understand what is required to ensure compliance and navigate the changing legal landscape.
