New Regulations for Embryo Export to the European Union


New regulations are now in place for exporting embryos from the United States to the European Union. Going forward, IVF embryos being exported from the United States to the European Union MUST be made with EU qualified semen. Please note, that IVF embryos frozen BEFORE April 20, 2021 are unaffected by these new regulations. There have been no changes regarding conventionally collected embryos and their eligibility for export from the United States to the EU. If you have questions regarding these new regulations, please contact your ET practitioner.
