Surrogacy Georgia - Vita Nova Clinic | IVF and Surrogacy in Tbilisi

About Surrogacy Georgia - Vita Nova Clinic

Operational status (as of 2026-09). The clinic’s official website, vitanova.com.ge, stopped resolving in mid-2026: an independent audit by the review body Repro Society recorded the domain as dead on 2026-07-03 (no DNS records; the .ge registry whois returned “No match”), and the Georgian business directory Madloba flagged the listing as “Closed” on 2026-07-12 (the Closed flag no longer appears on the directory page as of September 2026, but reopening has not been confirmed). Repro Society’s team audit found that physicians from the archived Vita Nova site now appear on the roster of Clinic Atlas / AtlasCARE, a related clinic around the same Lubliana street block, which points to a staff and brand migration rather than a confirmed shutdown. Whether Vita Nova still operates under its own name is unconfirmed - verify through the clinic’s published contact channels before booking or paying anything. The profile below documents the clinic as it presented itself while active, with sources named.

Vita Nova Reproductive IVF Clinic began in 2007 as an IVF department and has operated as a private clinic since 2010. Its own website copy, preserved verbatim on clinic-listing mirrors, described it as one of the largest fertility centers in Georgia and the post-Soviet region, with doctors trained in France, Sweden, Germany, Israel and Russia and a team background of roughly 20 years in assisted reproduction. The clinic’s stated specialty was donor IVF and third-party reproduction - egg donation and gestational surrogacy for international intended parents - alongside standard IVF, ICSI, IUI and testicular sperm retrieval (TESA) (source: mirrored official-site text via LinkedIVF, ivfbama, bornduo and geoivf listings).

Beyond fertility treatment, the archived site described outpatient and inpatient departments for diagnosing and treating reproductive disorders in both partners, from pediatric gynecology through the climacteric period, and named immunological infertility as its practical and research priority.

There are no published success rates. The mirrored official text claims “excellent success rates” without numbers, and Repro Society’s 2026 audit lists “no success rate published” and “pricing not disclosed” as verified findings. Georgia has no CDC/SART-style national reporting database, so no independent outcome data exists for this clinic. Ask for live-birth rates by age bracket and the calculation methodology - and note that with the official channel gone, self-reported claims can no longer be checked against the source site.

Accreditations & Awards

Georgian clinic license 23060101 (type: Clinic), verified by the LinkedIVF platform on 2023-06-01. This is a business/medical operating license, not a quality accreditation.
ESHRE membership - claimed, not confirmed. The clinic’s own website stated “we are the members of the ESHRE.” Repro Society searched ESHRE registries, PubMed and Russian-language sources and found no independent record supporting the claim (audit dated 2026-07-07).
No international facility accreditation. As of the September 2026 source sweep there is no JCI, ISO 15189, CAP, SART or HFEA record for this clinic, and none was claimed by it.
Third-party ratings: Google 4.8/5 from 23 reviews; LinkedIVF 4.2 on its own platform, built on 242 recorded consultations (as of 2026-09); Madloba 5.0/5 from 9 reviews. The Madloba five-stars cluster in 2022 and sit on a single doctor, which Repro Society’s auditor judged “likely solicited” - weigh all three scores with that in mind.

Why Choose Vita Nova Clinic

These were the clinic’s documented characteristics while operating; re-verify each before relying on them.

Long-running Tbilisi IVF program: established 2007, private since 2010 - among the earlier IVF clinics in Georgia (mirrored official-site text)
Donor and surrogacy focus: listing platforms describe the clinic as specializing in donor IVF and third-party reproduction, with a stated service history for married couples and single parents, and inclusive care for LGBTQ+ patients and HIV carriers (LinkedIVF and ivfbama mirrors of the official site)
Both partners treated in one place: outpatient and inpatient departments covering male and female reproductive disorders, conservative and surgical (geoivf mirror of the official About page)
European-trained physicians: team training cited in France, Sweden, Germany, Israel and Russia (mirrored official-site text; individual bios below)
Immunological infertility emphasis: the archived site positioned infertility, “especially immunological,” as its scientific specialty
Screening and preservation on the menu: directory tags list PGT-A genetic screening and egg/embryo freezing, and embryology sits in the team’s stated background. The clinic never published its lab equipment or culture setup, so confirm which lab runs its PGT-A work before relying on it

IVF & Fertility Services

Per the mirrored official site and LinkedIVF listing:

IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) - standard and donor-egg cycles
ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) - for male-factor infertility; the embryology team’s bios list IMSI and PICSI sperm-selection variants
IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) - partner and donor sperm
TESA (Testicular Sperm Aspiration) - surgical sperm retrieval for azoospermia
Egg donation - donor sourcing and matching, the clinic’s most-marked specialty
Gestational surrogacy programs - matching, clinical care and legal coordination for intended parents
Egg and embryo freezing - cryopreservation for fertility preservation
PGT-A genetic screening - listed in the clinic’s directory tags; no laboratory detail is publicly documented

A transparency note: Repro Society’s audit of the archived site found it advertising a “guaranteed success package,” an HIV “birth guarantee” package, and “attempts with mitochondrial replacement” among included procedures. Guarantee language and mitochondrial replacement are aggressive claims - the latter is prohibited or tightly restricted in most countries - and none is verifiable today.

Fees & Packages

There is no published price list. No mirrored page of the official site carried package prices, and Repro Society confirmed “pricing not disclosed” in July 2026. The LinkedIVF listing carried a “free estimate” badge, consistent with per-program quotes issued after consultation rather than fixed public packages.

General market context, separate from this clinic: Georgia positions itself as a lower-cost surrogacy destination than the US or Western Europe, and publicly discussed Georgian program totals in recent years commonly fall in the range of tens of thousands of US dollars (for example, a related Tbilisi group’s own guide cites $40,000-$60,000 per surrogacy program - that figure belongs to a different clinic and should not be read as Vita Nova’s pricing). Before engaging anywhere in this market, request an itemized written quote, confirm currency and refund terms, and treat prices far below market level as a red flag.

Patient Journey

Assembled from the FAQ mirror of the archived official site (LinkedIVF) and the published program process of the related clinic group:

Initial consultation - reviews describe staff answering questions in detail and doctors explaining each step before any commitment (mirrored LinkedIVF FAQ)
Medical assessment of both partners - testing for both partners first, then an individualized stimulation or transfer plan; the clinic published no price list, and program quotes were issued only after this evaluation (Repro Society confirmed “pricing not disclosed” in July 2026)
Program agreement and legal phase - surrogacy cases proceed under a notarized contract drawn up within the Georgian legal framework
Donor and surrogate screening and matching - candidate screening and preparation completed under the notarized agreement
Treatment cycle in Tbilisi - retrieval, fertilization and transfer; for stay planning, the related Clinic Atlas group’s published surrogacy guide quotes 15-20 days in Georgia, or 7-9 days if preliminary testing is done at home - those figures belong to the affiliated clinic, not to Vita Nova
Birth registration and travel documents - a birth certificate naming only the intended parents is issued within 24 hours of birth, and the program wraps up with paperwork for the baby’s travel documents

Because the clinic’s own channels went offline in 2026, confirm current timelines, staffing and coordinator arrangements directly with whichever entity now serves these patients.

Local Legal Framework

Georgia has permitted surrogacy since a law regulating third-party assisted reproduction came into force in 1997, and is one of the few countries open to international intended parents. Under the registry provisions the clinic cited (Articles 143-144, text mirrored from its official pages):

IVF with the couple’s own or donated gametes is lawful for treating infertility or the risk of transmitting a genetic disease, with the couple’s written consent
A child born through a surrogate is registered to the intended couple; neither the donor nor the surrogate can be recognized as a parent, and the surrogate’s consent is not required for registration
The birth certificate is issued within 24 hours of birth and names only the intended parents, indistinguishable from any other child’s certificate
Registration requires the surrogacy agreement, an embryo-transfer certificate from the IVF clinic, and a childbirth certificate from the maternity hospital
Egg and sperm donation are legal, and donor identity may be disclosed to intended parents if all parties agree
Clinic-published program requirements: intended parents must be married; surrogate candidates must already have at least one child of their own, maintain good health, abstain from alcohol, tobacco and drugs, and, under the notarized agreement, undergo no abortion before embryo transfer
There is no state waiting list - the archived site stated treatment starts as soon as the contract is signed

The statutes themselves are published in Georgian on the Parliament and Ministry of Health websites. Intended parents should still confirm that their home country will recognize the birth certificate and grant the child citizenship or entry documents before traveling.
