APPLICATION OF SURROGACY TECHNOLOGY BY FOREIGNERS IN UKRAINE (LEGAL CONFLICT)

Abstract

The aim: To establish legal conflicts between the use of surrogacy technology by foreigners in Ukraine, to develop mechanisms to overcome them. Materials and methods: The study used a methodology that embodies an interdisciplinary approach that allows systematic analysis of theoretical and practical aspects of legal conflicts in the use of surrogacy technology by foreigners in Ukraine, as well as develop proposals for their elimination. Conclusions: It is proposed to adopt at the level of an international act unified approaches to determining the origin of a child born as a result of the use of surrogate motherhood technology to eliminate legal conflicts. The need to amend the legislation of Ukraine and the establishment of a ban on unilateral refusal from the surrogacy agreement after the embryo has been implemented is argued. Based on the analysis of judicial practice, it was established what problems may arise in the registration of paternity and maternity by foreign genetic parents in connection with the application of the surrogacy procedure by foreigners in Ukraine in cases where their native legislation does not permit or restricts surrogacy.
