Egg Freezing Clinics in Thailand

Can you freeze here, and use the eggs later?

In its current form, Thailand's law on assisted reproduction (the Protection of Children Born from Assisted Reproductive Technologies Act B.E. 2558, passed in 2015) restricts treatment to legally married couples. Clinics differ on whether they will freeze eggs for single women, and creating embryos from those eggs in future is covered by the same Act.

In July 2026 a revised bill went out to public consultation. Reports say it would widen access to same-sex spouses and let eggs, sperm and embryos leave the country once a committee approves, but it had not become law when this guide was written. Get each clinic's answer in writing on two points: whether you can freeze with them, and under what terms you could later use the eggs in Thailand or another country.

Your age at freezing

Your age on the day the eggs are frozen is the main thing that shapes how useful they will be later. ASRM says egg freezing generally gives better results in the 20s and early 30s and is not commonly recommended after 38. It also cautions that having eggs in storage can make some people feel safer than they are and put off trying for longer.

ESHRE's guideline on female fertility preservation deals with both medical reasons, such as cancer treatment, and freezing because fertility declines with age.

Numbers to keep in mind

Egg numbers vary between people and between cycles. According to the HFEA, most patients under 38 have about 7 to 14 eggs collected per cycle, and people with a low ovarian reserve may not reach collection at all. Reaching the total a specialist recommends can take more than one round.

ASRM estimates that each frozen egg has roughly a 2 to 12 per cent chance of resulting in a baby, lower the older you were at freezing. Using the eggs later means thawing them and fertilising by ICSI, which is a separate IVF cycle with its own fees.

Inside the freezing lab

Unfertilised eggs are harder to freeze well than embryos, and the HFEA reports that vitrification, a rapid technique, works better than slow cooling. Ask which one the lab uses, how many eggs typically come through the thaw, and how eggs in storage are labelled, watched and protected if a tank or power supply fails.

Budgeting for three stages

ASRM suggests thinking about cost in three stages: the freezing cycle itself, yearly storage, and the eventual thaw, fertilisation and transfer. Many packages cover only the first stage, sometimes with an initial spell of storage, so get all three priced on paper.

• Drugs for stimulation, and what extra doses would cost
• Monitoring scans, the collection procedure and anaesthetic
• Freezing, plus the number of storage years included
• The yearly storage charge afterwards, and whether it can go up
• Thaw, ICSI and transfer costs when you come to use the eggs

If you may take your eggs home

Plan any future move before the eggs are frozen. Sending eggs out of Thailand is controlled by regulation, and under the 2026 draft a committee would need to approve each export. Ask what is needed now, who arranges transport in specialist containers, and whether the clinic and country receiving them will take them.

The HFEA notes that a regulator in your home country cannot step in over problems with treatment abroad. Hold on to your own paperwork, showing the number of eggs stored and the freezing method used, and find out how complaints are handled.

The storage contract

Storage limits and conditions depend on the country and the clinic. In the UK, eggs may be kept for up to 55 years, with consent renewed every 10 years, and the HFEA urges patients to keep their contact details current. Thai clinics set their own terms, so check rather than assume.

Ask for the written storage agreement up front. It should state the maximum storage period, how and when fees are charged, how reminders are sent, what happens if you fall behind or cannot be found, and your choices when storage ends: using the eggs, donating them where the law allows, or allowing them to be discarded.
