IVF providers across Thailand compared, from Bangkok to Chiang Mai, Phuket and the eastern seaboard: services, published prices and what to check first. Check services, staff, fees and availability with each provider before you book.
Choice is concentrated in Bangkok. Chiang Mai, Phuket and the Pattaya area each have a smaller mix of hospital units and clinics.
Eligibility comes first. The 2015 Act limits treatment to legally married couples; a 2026 draft revision is not yet law.
Branches of the same group can differ. Ask which laboratory steps are done locally and which accreditation covers that branch.
If embryos are frozen, read the storage terms and the rules for moving them abroad before you start.
Our method for this page
We read each provider's own web pages on IVF and fertility clinics in Thailand and kept only statements we could trace to a source. Nobody paid to be included, and the list is not a quality ranking. Criteria:
Bumrungrad's Fertility Center & IVF Clinic is on the 2nd floor of the main building's North Wing. The hospital describes a team of more than 20 fertility specialists and staff, and names its doctors, each listed under obstetrics and gynaecology and reproductive medicine. Treatment ranges from medication and minimally invasive surgery (hysteroscopy, laparoscopy) to IUI, IVF and ICSI, with blastocyst or day-3 embryo transfer; the hospital says one IVF cycle takes four to six weeks.
Laboratory options it publishes include EmbryoScope time-lapse monitoring, MACS sperm selection and preimplantation genetic testing: PGT-A by NGS, and PGT-M for single-gene conditions such as thalassaemia. A medical genetics specialist offers pre-pregnancy carrier screening for couples.
The centre is open seven days a week, and the hospital offers teleconsultation, online enquiries and a 24-hour contact centre. No IVF prices are shown on its pages. It may suit couples who want treatment within a large international hospital, with genetic counselling available.

Worth confirming: No IVF prices are published; ask for an itemised quote and confirm eligibility under Thai law, as the hospital's egg-freezing page refers to fertilisation with a legal spouse's sperm.
JCI clinical care programme certifications (stroke, acute coronary syndrome, lung cancer, orthogeriatric; listed to 2027)
The Fertility Center at Bangkok Hospital's headquarters campus starts by investigating the cause of infertility and treating it where possible, with ovulation drugs, minimally invasive surgery or IUI, before moving to IVF or ICSI with embryos cultured to the blastocyst stage. Its OB/GYN surgeons treat ovarian and chocolate cysts, endometriosis and pelvic adhesions laparoscopically or with robotic assistance.
The centre says its reproductive endocrinologists and embryologists have more than 15 years' experience, and that it has its own embryology lab built to cleanroom standards plus a male laboratory for sperm analysis and selection. PGT-A is sold as a 96,000-baht package that includes embryo freezing for two embryos, with testing on the doctor's recommendation.
The centre can be reached by phone, email or LINE (@BHQFertility). No price for a full IVF cycle is published. It may suit couples who want IVF inside a large private hospital, with gynaecological surgery available on the same campus.

Samitivej's Fertility Center at Sukhumvit offers IUI, IVF and ICSI with blastocyst culture, and lists several less common techniques: in vitro maturation (IVM), including with cAMP modulators, which the hospital says was first offered in Thailand at Samitivej Sukhumvit and which avoids hormone stimulation for patients such as those with PCOS; calcium ionophore after low fertilisation with ICSI; uterine receptivity testing; and mitochondrial DNA testing.
Genetic options are PGD and PGS by array CGH or NGS, and the hospital describes a newer embryology laboratory in the Samitivej Critical Care Complex. A second Fertility Center operates at Samitivej Srinakarin (4th floor, daily 08:00–17:00).
The hospital says it has treated fertility patients from more than 38 countries. Package details sit on a separate packages page that did not display when checked. The centre may suit patients interested in IVM or other specialist laboratory techniques, and its long daily hours may help those fitting scans around work.

The Fertility Center on the 2nd floor of Bangkok Hospital Phuket offers infertility investigation (consultation, hysterosalpingogram and semen analysis), IUI, IVF and ICSI with blastocyst culture, surgical sperm retrieval, and embryo and sperm freezing.
Its surgical work for infertility covers tubal reanastomosis, laparoscopic tuboplasty, cystectomy and release of adhesions, and hysteroscopy, alongside endometriosis care, family planning and a Golden Age Clinic. The facilities page lists imaging such as 3 Tesla MRI, spectral CT and 4D ultrasound, but gives no details of the embryology laboratory.
The only published price is a pre-pregnancy check-up package at 5,100–9,000 baht; no IVF prices are shown, and the centre's own pages do not describe a programme for overseas patients. It may suit couples living in or near Phuket who want assessment and IVF without travelling to Bangkok.
Bangkok Hospital Pattaya's Fertility Center, on the 3rd floor of Building B, offers consultation and testing for both partners, IUI, IVF and ICSI, and testicular sperm extraction (TESE) followed by ICSI for men with blocked ducts or ejaculation problems. Diagnostic laparoscopy is used to look for causes such as endometriosis and blocked tubes.
The centre describes its own fertility laboratory built to international standards, with a team that includes embryologists, and points to maternal-fetal medicine specialists, a neonatal intensive care unit and trained nurses at the hospital for pregnancy, birth and newborn care.
It advises couples who have tried for a year without success to come in for assessment. Its page does not mention embryo or egg freezing, genetic testing of embryos, or prices. The centre may suit couples living on the Eastern Seaboard who want IVF and later maternity care at one hospital.

JCI Clinical Care Program Certification (fertility centre)
Phyathai 2's fertility centre sits on the 10th floor of Building B and is open every day. It has its own embryo culture laboratory and operating room, and its doctors can investigate and treat abnormalities by laparoscopic surgery before treatment. Listed treatments are insemination, IVF and ICSI with culture to the blastocyst stage, and embryo chromosome screening using NGS or array CGH.
The hospital states that the centre holds Joint Commission International Clinical Care Program Certification. It promotes English-speaking care for expatriates, including a second-opinion programme for people whose earlier IUI, IVF or ICSI did not succeed, and lists LINE and WeChat contacts alongside the phone line.
No IVF prices are published. The centre may suit couples in north-central Bangkok, or those wanting a fresh opinion after unsuccessful treatment elsewhere.
Worth confirming: Ask for a written quote that includes medication and embryo testing, and confirm which documents Thai law requires for your situation.
Superior A.R.T. is a standalone clinic opened in 2007 by Thai infertility specialists working with Australian fertility providers. Its IVF pathway centres on ICSI, with embryos cultured to the blastocyst stage at day 5–6 and screened by NGS-based PGT, which the clinic says checks all 24 chromosomes. Its about page lists ISO 15189:2022 and ISO 15190:2020 for its laboratories, ISO 9001:2015 and ESHRE clinical embryologist certification.
For patients abroad, the FAQ describes two trips: 3–4 days for egg collection if stimulation is monitored at home (up to 15 days if it starts in Bangkok), then a shorter stay for embryo transfer. It offers paid phone consultations, Mandarin-speaking staff and a letter to support visa applications. The FAQ quotes THB 495,000 for an all-inclusive ICSI with PGT-A package (one stimulation and one transfer cycle); the promotion page lists THB 498,000 and covers testing, freezing and a year's storage for up to eight embryos.
The FAQ limits IVF to married heterosexual couples with certified proof of marriage, and the clinic does not arrange surrogacy. It may suit married couples who want embryo screening within a fixed-price package.

Jetanin grew out of a clinic founded in 1995 and now runs as a fertility hospital on Soi Chidlom. It offers IVF and ICSI, with IMSI for men with significant sperm problems, blastocyst culture, EmbryoScope time-lapse monitoring and MACS sperm selection. Its genetics laboratory offers PGT-A, PGT-M and PGT-SR using NGS; PGT-M starts with a case review, genetic counselling and parental saliva samples.
The hospital runs its own embryo, genetics and sperm laboratories, with two staff witnessing each laboratory step. It states that it gained JCI accreditation in 2017 and RTAC accreditation in 2018, lists ISO 15189 for its laboratory processes, and says its embryologists hold Thai (ATE, TSRM) and ESHRE certification. The genetics lab takes part in UK and European external quality assessment schemes each year.
An international patients page names a coordinator reachable on WhatsApp and mentions a package reserved for overseas patients, but no prices are published. Jetanin may suit couples who want embryo culture, genetic testing and sperm work done in one place.

SAFE Fertility Group's head clinic is on the 17th floor of Gaysorn Amarin, one of five branches. Its IVF/ICSI pathway involves about 8–10 days of hormone injections with two or three monitoring visits, then egg retrieval under general anaesthesia. Options listed for overseas patients include PGTseq-A chromosome testing (NGS with SNP), EmbryoScope Plus time-lapse incubation, MACS and IMSI sperm selection, TESE/PESA, and add-ons such as acupuncture and ovarian rejuvenation.
The group says it was the first clinic in Thailand accredited by RTAC, shows an ISO 9001:2015 mark, and states that laboratory work is overseen by ESHRE-certified embryologists, with the cryostorage facility monitored around the clock. It is listed on the Stock Exchange of Thailand.
Each international patient is given a named, multilingual personal assistant who handles documents, translation, reminders and WhatsApp support, and the team provides visa paperwork. SAFE suggests 10–14 days in Bangkok over two trips, with early scans possible at home. Its ICSI package brochure lists four monitoring visits, stimulation medication, egg collection with anaesthesia, ICSI with laser-assisted hatching, one EmbryoScope slide and freezing of up to three embryos, but no price. It may suit overseas couples who want one contact handling logistics.

Beyond IVF runs a clinic on Rama 2 Road in Chom Thong district in partnership with Fertility Associates, a fertility group founded in New Zealand in 1987. It offers IVF and ICSI alongside ovulation induction and IUI, with optional laboratory add-ons, and its site also covers donor treatment, surrogacy information and an LGBTQIA+ pathway.
The clinic publishes starting prices. Three pre-IVF health check packages start at 4,900, 5,900 and 8,900 baht, the dearer two adding thalassaemia screening and hormone tests. The ICSI package starts at 175,000 baht and excludes embryo freezing, thawing and chromosome testing, so those costs come on top. A free nurse consultation is offered to people at the start of treatment.
The site is in Thai and English, and the clinic does not describe a dedicated service for overseas patients or name a laboratory accreditation. It may suit people living in south-west Bangkok who want a published starting price before their first appointment.

Chiang Mai IVF Polyclinic is a fertility-only clinic opened in 2016 by obstetrician-gynaecologists who also teach at a medical school; the clinic is led by Professor Teraporn Vutyavanich. It lists IUI, IVF and ICSI, embryo transfer, PGD for couples with inherited conditions and PGS screening, alongside embryo banking, and it says it treats Thai patients, foreign residents and visitors from abroad.
The clinic describes cleanroom egg-collection and culture rooms, computer-controlled incubators with back-up power, and same-day hormone results. It states RTAC accreditation listed to November 2026. It is open every day, with weekday hours to 20:00, and the doctors' listed sessions fall mainly on weekday evenings and at weekends.
No prices are published online. It may suit couples living in northern Thailand who want IVF without travelling to Bangkok.
Apichart IVF is a doctor-led clinic near Kad Suan Kaew run by a reproductive medicine specialist who, the clinic says, has worked in the field for more than 30 years and trained in reproductive sciences at Monash University. It offers IUI, IVF and ICSI, with embryos frozen and transferred in a later cycle.
Its published package is a single all-inclusive cycle at THB 200,000 for IVF or ICSI. This covers stimulation medication without a day limit, monitoring, egg collection with anaesthesia, the laboratory work, freezing every embryo, the first year's storage of up to ten embryos, and up to two consecutive transfers. Later transfers from stored embryos are THB 30,000 each. Pregnancy-support medication after a positive test is extra.
The clinic is open for two hours each afternoon and does not treat single women or same-sex couples. It may suit married couples in Chiang Mai who want a fixed, published price.
Worth confirming: The second included transfer must follow straight after the first or it is forfeited, and nothing is refunded if too few embryos develop; read the package conditions before paying.
SAFE's Phuket clinic is one of the group's five branches, on the 4th floor of the Bangkok-Siriroj Building. The group lists its ICSI, IUI and frozen embryo transfer packages for Phuket, and its brochures state that the RTAC accreditation mark covers this branch as well as the Bangkok head clinic.
The ICSI package brochure lists four monitoring visits with blood tests and scans, stimulation, suppression and trigger medication, egg collection with anaesthesia, sperm preparation, ICSI with laser-assisted hatching, one EmbryoScope slide and freezing of up to three embryos. The group's international service assigns each overseas patient a personal assistant for translation, scheduling and visa paperwork.
No prices or opening hours are published for the branch. It may suit couples living in or visiting Phuket who want a fertility-only clinic on the island.
Worth confirming: Ask which steps, such as embryo genetic testing, are done in Phuket, the package price in writing, and which documents Thai law requires for your situation.
SAFE's Sriracha clinic is on Sukhumvit Road in Chonburi province, north of Pattaya, and is one of the group's five branches. The group lists its ICSI, IUI, frozen embryo transfer and couples' health-check packages here.

How to compare IVF and fertility clinics in Thailand
Choosing an IVF clinic means choosing a medical team, an embryology laboratory and policies you may live with for years if embryos are frozen. Headline prices and success figures are the easiest things to compare and the easiest to misread: packages include different steps, and clinics report results in different ways.
This guide sets out what to check before you commit, from eligibility under Thai law to laboratory standards, success figures, quotes and travel. The right plan for you depends on your age, test results and history, so discuss it with a fertility specialist.
Eligibility and the law in Thailand
Assisted reproduction in Thailand is governed by the Protection of Children Born from Assisted Reproductive Technologies Act B.E. 2558 (2015). As enacted, the Act limits treatment to legally married couples, bans commercial surrogacy and trade in eggs and sperm, and requires each surrogacy arrangement to be approved by a committee.
The law is under review. In July 2026 the Department of Health Service Support opened public consultation on a revised bill which, as reported, would extend access to married same-sex couples following the 2024 marriage equality law, allow some foreign married couples to use surrogacy, and permit export of eggs, sperm and embryos with committee approval. A draft is not the law: ask each clinic which rules apply on the date you start, and what documents (such as a marriage certificate and its translation) it needs from you.
Hospital fertility unit or standalone clinic
IVF is offered both by fertility units inside general hospitals and by standalone fertility clinics. A hospital unit can call on other departments on site, such as emergency care, anaesthesia and obstetrics, which may matter if you have other health conditions or if a complication such as ovarian hyperstimulation needs inpatient care. A standalone clinic may offer more continuity with one team.
Neither model is better in itself. Ask who will see you at each visit, who performs egg collection and transfer, where you would be admitted if something went wrong, and who answers the phone out of hours.
The laboratory and the embryologists
Much of what happens in an IVF cycle happens in the laboratory, out of sight. Ask who leads the embryology team, how many cycles the lab handles each year, and how eggs and embryos are labelled and checked to prevent mix-ups.
Some clinics hold external laboratory accreditation, such as RTAC certification (the Australian and New Zealand scheme) or ISO 15189 for medical laboratories. If a clinic mentions one, ask to see the current certificate and check that it covers the IVF laboratory itself.
Ask whether embryos and eggs are frozen by vitrification (rapid freezing) or slow cooling, and what the lab's survival rate after thawing is. If time-lapse incubation is offered, note that the UK regulator, the HFEA, rates it as having no effect on the chance of a baby based on current evidence.
How to read success rates
A success rate depends on what is counted and who is counted. Check three things before comparing any two figures: the outcome (a positive pregnancy test, a clinical pregnancy seen on a scan, or a live birth), the denominator (per cycle started, per egg collection, or per embryo transferred), and the age group.
Regulators urge caution. The US CDC says comparisons between clinics should be made with caution and may not be meaningful, because clinics treat different patients and use different methods. The HFEA advises using success rates as a rough guide rather than a prediction, and looking at the multiple birth rate alongside the birth rate. A clinic's figures do not tell you your own chance; ask the specialist about that directly.
Itemised costs and package small print
Packages bundle different steps, so the cheapest headline price is not necessarily the cheapest cycle. Ask for an itemised, written quote based on your own test results and compare the same lines across clinics.
Check the conditions too: who the package applies to (some are limited by nationality or residence), how long it is valid, what is refunded if the cycle is cancelled or no embryo is suitable for transfer, and whether it can be combined with insurance.
Add-ons deserve particular care. PGT-A (genetic screening of embryos) is often sold as a way to improve results, but the HFEA rates it red for improving the chance of a baby for most patients, while rating it green for reducing miscarriage. The HFEA says a clinic should be able to show you the evidence for any treatment it offers.
Pre-treatment tests and consultations
Stimulation medication, and the cost of any dose above the package allowance
Monitoring scans and blood tests
Egg collection, anaesthesia and ICSI
Embryo culture, time-lapse and genetic testing (PGT-A)
Freezing, annual storage and each frozen embryo transfer (FET)
Embryo transfer policy
Twin and triplet pregnancies carry higher risks for both the pregnant person and the babies, and ESHRE's guideline favours transferring a single embryo. The HFEA notes that single embryo transfer is usual practice for most patients in the UK, but not every country follows it.
Ask how many embryos the clinic usually transfers for someone of your age, whether it will put its recommendation in writing, and what its multiple birth rate is.
Travelling for treatment, storage and moving embryos
A full cycle runs over several weeks, and a freeze-all plan splits it into two trips. Ask which tests and early monitoring scans can be done at home and sent to the clinic, how many days you must be present,. Ask for copies of your records, and how complaints are handled: the HFEA notes a home-country regulator cannot help with treatment abroad.
If embryos are frozen, read the storage terms before you start: the annual fee, how you will be reminded, and what happens if you cannot be contacted or stop paying. Moving embryos or eggs out of Thailand is regulated, and the 2026 draft bill proposes committee approval for export. Ask the clinic what is required today, who arranges transport, and whether a clinic in your home country can legally receive them.
Questions to ask before you book
Am I eligible for treatment here under current Thai law, and which documents do you need from me?
Who will be my doctor at each stage, and who performs egg collection and embryo transfer?
Who leads your embryology laboratory, and what external accreditation does the laboratory itself hold?
Do you freeze eggs and embryos by vitrification, and what is your survival rate after thawing?
What are your live birth rates for patients in my age group, per cycle started and per embryo transferred, and for which years?
What is your multiple birth rate, and how many embryos would you usually transfer for someone like me?
Can I have an itemised written quote covering medication, monitoring, ICSI, culture, freezing, storage and a frozen transfer?
Which add-ons are you recommending for me, and what evidence supports each one?
What is refunded if my cycle is cancelled or no embryo is suitable for transfer?
Which steps can be done at home, and how many days do I need to be here?
What does embryo storage cost each year, and what happens if you cannot reach me?
What is required to move frozen embryos to a clinic in another country?
Warning signs
A single success figure with no age group, no years and no explanation of what was counted.
Promises or guarantees of a baby, or a quote of your personal chances before you have been assessed.
Pressure to transfer more than one embryo to improve the odds, or reluctance to state a transfer policy.
A package price that cannot be itemised in writing, or vague answers about what costs extra.
Add-ons presented as routine or essential without evidence of benefit for your situation.
Unclear answers about eligibility under Thai law, or an offer to work around it.
Foreign couples can be treated if they meet the same conditions as Thai couples. The 2015 Act, as enacted, requires a legal marriage, and clinics ask for passports and a marriage certificate, sometimes with a certified translation. Confirm the documents with the clinic before you travel.
Do I need to go to Bangkok for IVF?
No. Fertility units and clinics also operate in Chiang Mai, Phuket and near Pattaya. Outside Bangkok, ask what each provider does on site: some services, such as embryo genetic testing or long-term storage, may be handled elsewhere within the group.
What does the 2026 draft law change?
As reported by Nation Thailand in July 2026, the draft would extend access to married same-sex couples, allow some foreign married couples to use surrogacy, and permit export of eggs, sperm and embryos with committee approval. A consultation draft is not law and may change. Treat any offer based on the draft with caution.
Can I take frozen embryos home?
Export of embryos from Thailand is regulated, and the 2026 draft proposes committee approval for it. Ask the clinic what is required today, who arranges transport, and whether a clinic in your country can legally receive them. The HFEA notes that a home-country regulator cannot help with problems arising from treatment abroad.
