Can a single man use surrogacy in Israel?

Yes. Single men have been able to access Israeli surrogacy since the 2022 amendments. The process requires committee approval and a qualifying Israeli residency. A social worker assessment of the single parent's suitability and support network is a standard part of the application. At least one committee member who is a woman must sit on any panel reviewing a single man's application. The sperm used must be that of the intended father.
