Thailand plans to legalise surrogacy for foreign couples


BANGKOK (Reuters): Thailand is amending a law to allow foreign couples to seek surrogacy services in the country, a senior health official said on Friday.

In 2015, Thailand introduced tough regulations to control surrogacy and banned the process for foreign couples after several high profile scandals that led to a crackdown on the country's unregulated "wombs for hire" industry.
