This report focuses on surrogacy in Thailand which is increasingly popular with infertile and childless couples, gay couples, individuals, and even celebrities who want children later in life. However, the debate regarding surrogacy continues. It is not widely accepted in various cases, particularly in its commercial form which is banned in many countries. However, such arrangements are still reported to be active irrespective of the ban, and in Thailand in particular. This article proposes that surrogacy legislation needs revision to enforce the current ban on commercial surrogacy.
