The global surrogacy market, valued at USD 194.0 million in 2024, is experiencing steady growth, with projections estimating it will reach USD 321.4 million by 2033, driven by a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.48% from 2025 to 2033, according to IMARC Group. The "market rate" for surrogacy varies significantly by region and type (gestational or traditional), with costs typically ranging from $50,000 to $150,000 in the U.S., covering surrogate compensation, medical expenses, legal fees, and agency costs. Internationally, rates can be lower, such as $30,000–$70,000 in countries like India or Ukraine, though regulations and ethical considerations impact pricing.
