Can frozen sperm be shipped to another clinic?

At Cryos we actually shifted sperm to over 100 countries. We work with many many clinics in this 100 countries so the shipment is very easy. You need to choose the sperm donor that you want to obtain and once you have chosen the customer care would help you with where you are having the treatment whether it is in your country you’ve already chosen a clinic or whether you want to travel abroad and have treatment in another country and again we can assist you as well with that and explain to you how the process would be with whether that particular status of anonymity would be allowed in the country you want to offer the treatment in.
We will then work through when and how you would like it to be delivered. We have different types of shipments available and it’s very easy to do. We can do it within a week or two maximum.
What we find out is that actually choosing a donor that takes the longest than the delivery of the sperm to your clinic because we have a lot of donors on our website we’re actually the largest bank in the Guinness Book of records with the number of donors we have on our website so that process of selection actually takes longer than the process of delivery for most patients.

Sperm can be shipped to whatever clinic you want it to go to, to be used in the future. In most cases, people who are going to preserve their sperm will go to a sperm bank or a facility that specializes in long-term storage. Once the sperm is there, you can just let them know in the future where you want that sperm to go to, and at that point in time, it’s just paperwork and setting up a transport. The paperwork is just consent, saying that you want to transfer your sperm from one place to the next. And then the transport can be arranged within a week to two weeks to have the sperm at the clinic. In some cases, if you need the sperm right away, it can be shipped in two days as long as the paperwork is done in advance.

We can ship sperm samples to other clinics. The only requirement is that you will be asked for the serology performed at the time of the freezing. You have to take into account that it’s easier to move the sperm sample around the European Union because the law it’s the same but out of EU, we need to ask for the health ministry for authorisation.

Yes, frozen sperm can be shipped from clinic to clinic even country to country if you wish. The requirement is for you to contact both clinics: your intentions to move this from clinic A to clinic B. Once you do that then the clicks communicate with each other, trade paperwork and as long as everything is fine and both clinics are happy with then it’s up to you the patient to get semen from clinic A to B. You can either do it yourself with a shipper that one of the clinics can loan you or you can get a professional courier service to do that for you.

The sperm sample can be shipped to another clinic as long as the other clinic also has the EU license that we use. Regarding countries that are not in the European Union, we get special approval from the Greek health authorities. So there is no concern about sending sperm to another country.
