 • Check your documents before the transport to ensure compliance with legal requirements. 
Legality of transporting your embryos (UK)

 • If you have eggs, sperm or embryos in storage, it’s possible to transport them to or out of the UK, 
    providing you use a licensed clinic.
 • Import and export is when you move eggs, sperm and embryos outside of the UK (export) or into the UK
    (import). This could be for storage or to use in fertility treatment. If you’re moving eggs, sperm or 
     embryos between UK clinics this is not import/export.
• There are strict requirements for importing/exporting and your clinic will need to be happy those 
    requirements have been met before they allow your eggs, sperm or embryos to be moved.
• If you’re importing your own eggs, sperm or embryos into the UK then you can usually store them for a 
   maximum of 10 years in the UK. In certain cases storage can be extended for up to 55 years. 
•  If you’re exporting to another country then length of storage depends on the relevant laws or restrictions 
    within that country (if there are any).
• If your clinic doesn’t believe your import/export meets the requirements, they can apply to us for special 
   permission on your behalf.

Why do some people import or export eggs, sperm or embryos?
You might want to consider importing or exporting your eggs, sperm or embryos if:
• You’re moving to the UK, or you’re moving overseas and you want to take your frozen eggs, sperm or 
   embryos with you.
• You’re using donor eggs or sperm from another country but you want to have fertility treatment in the UK.
• You want to go abroad for fertility treatment but you have frozen eggs, sperm or embryos in the UK that you
   want to take with you to use in treatment.
