This set India apart from most other surrogacy destinations with stricter requirements, many of which only
permit uncompensated surrogacy or limit surrogacy to heterosexual married couples.
Europe is a mixture of countries that range from jurisdictions that completely ban all forms of surrogacy arrangements (Germany, Greece, Italy), to some that allow
uncompensated or other forms of surrogacy arrangements with restrictions (England, Belgium), to a few that generally
permit all forms of surrogacy (Ukraine and Russia).
