Regulations

    The constitution of Colombia does not allow discrimination, so all singles, heterosexual couples, and same-sex couples may partake in our program as long as there is a genetic link to the baby.
    This was recognized by The Colombian Constitutional Court in a landmark decision in 2015 that ruled that excluding same-sex parents as potential adopters was a limitation of the right of children to have a family and not be separated from it.
    Equal rights also extend to foreigners in Article 100 of The Constitution which grants foreigners in Colombia the same civil rights and guarantees as those granted to citizens.
