IVF in Spain: Why Travel Abroad?
Spain is one of Europe’s top destinations for IVF. An increasing number of aspiring parents are travelling to the country to take advantage of its renowned specialists, modern medical facilities, and affordable treatment prices compared to the UK and other countries around the world.
Undergoing IVF in Spain has become increasingly common in recent years. As a European hub for high-quality reproductive medicine, Spain is characterised by internationally accredited clinics, short waiting lists, and extremely competitive treatment prices.
The country also boasts an impressive selection of world-renowned fertility specialists: with top-level qualifications and extensive experience at clinics throughout Europe, they’re among the best in their field. Choosing to undergo IVF in Spain will also allow you to access some of Europe’s best medical facilities. Equipped with the latest technologies, Spanish IVF clinics are well-known for carrying out successful fertility treatments using the latest techniques and methods. IVF clinics in Spain are also well-versed in caring for international patients, with doctors and clinic staff who speak fluent English and dedicated support teams who ensure that undergoing treatment abroad is as easy as it would be at home.
Travelling abroad to undertake IVF in Spain is straightforward. Flights from the UK and other parts of Europe only take around two to three hours, with budget airlines flying to most major Spanish cities. For visits of up to 90 days, British nationals don’t need a visa to enter Spain either. However, we do recommend checking the latest government advice on entry requirements before travelling for your treatment.
What Advantages Does IVF in Spain Have?
We made a list of some of the best countries for IVF, where we featured Spain as one of the leading countries drawing in patients from abroad. Added to the aforementioned advantages of excellent medical facilities, you encounter far lower costs and also fewer restrictions on what is permitted within IVF treatment. For instance, egg, sperm and embryo donation are allowed, as well as single women wanting the procedure.
Ultimately what you get when going for IVF in Spain is a choice of brilliant, well-established and highly funded clinics that are staffed by some of Europe's leading experts — for a much lower cost than in countries like the UK. You'll also likely get most of the fundamental elements of the treatment included in the price rather than added on as they arise, like consultations or egg harvesting. Additionally, as an international patient, lots of clinics include the travel logistics too: transfers and accommodation are included so you don't have any extra logistics to worry about.

What Factors Influence the Cost of IVF in Spain?
Although IVF costs in Spain are significantly lower than in the UK, the standards of care match — and often exceed — what you’d get at home. But, prices are always going to be subject to a few important factors, so it’s important to bear these in mind when planning your treatment.
Pricing method: IVF costs in Spain can vary based on what’s included in the overall price. Some Spanish clinics may quote a price that covers things like pre-treatment tests, specialist consultations and aftercare, whilst others may offer these at an additional cost.
Reputable and accredited specialists: when undergoing IVF in Spain, you’re paying for specialised care. Spanish doctors who have recognition from national and international organisations, such as the Spanish Fertility Society and the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE), may charge more for treatment, since the standards and equipment they use will be more advanced.
All-inclusive packages: some of the best IVF clinics in Spain offer all-inclusive packages specifically designed for international patients. As well as the treatment itself, these cost-effective packages usually include things like accommodation, airport transfers, and a shuttle service to take you to and from the clinic.
How Can You Spend Your Free Time In Spain?
When you go for IVF in Spain, you'll have some time between your appointments to enjoy the country; whether you go sight-seeing or want to relax, Spain can easily accommodate both. Cities like Madrid and Barcelona have old churches and palaces, beautiful parks and historical squares to wander around in, with lots of restaurants, cafes and bars to enjoy too. The public transport in Spain is also highly advanced, so getting around on trans and the metro makes it easy to see all the sights. Additionally, Spain has multiple national park areas, mountains, and of course, amazing beaches too.
