Ukraine is one of the world's leading destinations for egg donation — combining a large, medically screened donor database with EU-standard IVF clinics and costs that are 3 to 5 times lower than in the United States or Western Europe.
Egg donation in Ukraine is fully legal, clearly regulated, and specifically permits anonymous donation — which is not available in the UK, Australia, or most EU countries. This means shorter wait times, a wider donor pool, and faster program start times for international intended parents.
Key advantages of egg donation in Ukraine:
Egg donation in Ukraine is available to both married couples and single women. International patients are fully eligible — no Ukrainian citizenship or residency required.
Medical indications for egg donation:
How egg donors are screened in Ukraine:
Donors participate voluntarily and receive fair compensation for their time and medical involvement. All donors in our database have completed the full screening protocol before being listed.
From selecting your donor to embryo transfer — a transparent process for international patients.
We discuss your goals, medical history, and eligibility. Our coordinator explains all program options, costs, and next steps — no commitment required.
Browse our database of 500+ pre-screened anonymous egg donors. Filter by physical traits, blood type, education, AMH level, and more.
Recipient uterine assessment is completed (remotely or locally). Donor and recipient cycles are synchronized under clinic supervision — no travel needed at this stage.
The egg donor undergoes 10–12 days of hormonal stimulation. Retrieved eggs are fertilised with partner or donor sperm in our partner clinic laboratory.
Embryos are cultured to blastocyst stage. PGS/PGD genetic testing is available. The best embryo is transferred to the intended mother or surrogate.
We coordinate pregnancy testing, early monitoring, and all medical documentation. Your coordinator keeps you updated at every step.

Egg donors in Ukraine receive compensation for their time, medical involvement, and the discomfort of the stimulation and retrieval process. The typical egg donation pay in Ukraine is $800 to $1,500 USD per donation cycle.
This compensation covers:
Under Ukrainian law, eggs cannot be sold commercially — the payment is structured as remuneration for time and participation, which is the internationally accepted ethical framework for egg donation programs. Intended parents pay separately for the donor's screening, stimulation medications, retrieval, and all IVF laboratory procedures. A full cost breakdown is provided before any payment is made.
Yes. Egg donation in Ukraine is fully legal and regulated under federal law. The legal basis is the Family Code of Ukraine and Health Ministry Orders No. 24 and No. 771, which have governed ART procedures and donor anonymity since 2002.
Key legal protections for intended parents:
Note: If you are using donor eggs in a surrogacy arrangement, the same surrogacy laws apply. The intended parents are listed on the birth certificate; neither the egg donor nor the surrogate has any parental rights.
For patients in the US, UK, Australia, and Scandinavia searching for egg donation near me, local options are often expensive, slow, or heavily restricted. Ukraine has become one of the most accessible international destinations for donor egg IVF because:
Patients from over 40 countries have completed egg donation programs with IVF Militta, including from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, and China.
The typical timeline from first consultation to embryo transfer is 8 to 14 weeks.
Remaining embryos are vitrified (frozen). If the first transfer is unsuccessful, a frozen embryo transfer (FET) can be scheduled without repeating the donor cycle.

Answers to common questions about egg donation in Ukraine from international intended parents.
Yes. Egg donation in Ukraine is fully legal and has been regulated under federal law since 2002. The legal framework is provided by the Family Code of Ukraine and Health Ministry Orders No. 24 and No. 771. Anonymous donation is permitted and legally protected — donors have no parental rights and cannot be identified by the child or intended parents. Children born from donor eggs are the full legal children of the intended parents from birth, with no adoption or court process required in Ukraine.
A standard donor egg IVF program in Ukraine costs between $6,300 and $11,200 USD in 2026 (without PGS), or $7,800 to $14,200 with PGS genetic testing. The main components are: egg donor compensation ($800–$1,500), donor medical screening ($500–$800), stimulation medications ($800–$1,400), egg retrieval ($600–$1,000), IVF laboratory work ($1,500–$2,500), embryo transfer ($600–$1,000), and coordination/legal documentation ($1,500–$3,000). This is 3 to 5 times less than an equivalent program in the United States. IVF Militta provides a full itemized cost estimate during your free initial consultation.
Egg donors in Ukraine typically receive $800 to $1,500 USD per donation cycle as compensation for their time and the medical involvement of the stimulation and retrieval process. Under Ukrainian law, eggs cannot be sold commercially — the payment is structured as compensation for participation, time, and inconvenience. Intended parents pay separately for the donor's screening, medications, retrieval procedure, and all IVF laboratory services. A full cost breakdown is provided before any payment is required.
For patients in the US, UK, Australia, or Europe, Ukraine is one of the most accessible international destinations for donor egg IVF. At IVF Militta the process is largely remote — you only travel to Ukraine once, for the embryo transfer (approximately 5–7 days on-site). All prior steps — consultation, donor selection, medical preparation, and cycle coordination — are managed remotely via video call. Your dedicated English-speaking coordinator handles all logistics. Patients from 40+ countries have completed programs with us.
The typical timeline from first consultation to embryo transfer is 8 to 14 weeks. This includes initial consultation and medical review (1–2 weeks), donor selection (1–2 weeks), recipient preparation and donor stimulation (4–6 weeks), egg retrieval, fertilization and embryo culture (1–2 weeks), and embryo transfer. The pregnancy test follows 10–12 days after transfer. If frozen embryos remain, a frozen embryo transfer (FET) can be scheduled 1–2 months later without repeating the donor cycle.
Yes. IVF Militta maintains a database of 500+ pre-screened anonymous egg donors. You can filter and select based on physical characteristics (height, weight, hair and eye colour, skin tone), blood type and Rh factor, education level, ovarian reserve (AMH level), donation history, and nationality or ethnicity. Donors are anonymous by law — names and identifying photos are not provided — but extended profiles with additional medical and personal information can be requested for shortlisted candidates. Our coordinators can also assist with selection.
Minimal travel is required. If you are the recipient (intended mother), you typically travel to Ukraine only once — for the embryo transfer — which requires approximately 5–7 days on-site. All other steps (consultation, donor selection, medical preparation, and monitoring) are managed remotely. If you are combining egg donation with a surrogacy arrangement, no travel is needed for the egg retrieval stage at all; intended parents travel for the birth. Your coordinator provides a full travel plan specific to your program.
All egg donors in IVF Militta's database have completed a comprehensive screening before being listed. This includes: age verification (18–32), full medical history review, infectious disease testing (HIV, hepatitis B and C, syphilis, TORCH panel), hormonal profile and ovarian reserve assessment (AMH, FSH, antral follicle count), genetic karyotype analysis, gynecological examination and transvaginal ultrasound, and psychological evaluation by a licensed specialist. Donors must have no hereditary or serious chronic conditions.
Clinical pregnancy rates for donor egg IVF at IVF Militta's partner clinics are 55–65% per transfer when using PGS-tested blastocysts. Donor eggs typically produce higher success rates than own-egg IVF because donors are young (18–32), healthy, and have confirmed ovarian reserve. PGS testing further improves outcomes by screening embryos for chromosomal abnormalities before transfer, which also reduces miscarriage risk.
Yes. Unlike surrogacy (which requires a legally married heterosexual couple under Ukrainian law), egg donation in Ukraine is available to single women as well as married couples. International single women can use their own uterus for the embryo transfer or combine egg donation with a surrogacy program. Your eligibility and the best program structure will be assessed during your free initial consultation.
Yes. Gender selection via Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS/PGT-A) is legal in Ukraine. After fertilization, embryos are cultured to blastocyst stage, a cell is biopsied, and the biopsy is analysed for chromosomal composition — which also reveals the sex of each embryo. You choose which embryo to transfer. PGS adds $1,500–$3,000 to program costs but also increases success rates by ensuring only chromosomally healthy embryos are used.
