Why the US-to-Mexico Corridor Exists
More and more intended parents in the United States are choosing to freeze eggs, pursue IVF, or coordinate donor cycles in Mexico — drawn by Mexico's growing network of accredited fertility clinics, shorter treatment timelines, and a regulatory environment under COFEPRIS that accommodates international patients. For many, that means their eggs need to travel from a US clinic or storage facility into a Mexican fertility centre, safely, on time, and without ever leaving the sight of someone who knows exactly what they're carrying.
That's where we come in. We don't treat your eggs like a package. We treat them like what they are.
Tijuana
Tijuana is the most common entry point for eggs shipped from the western and southwestern United States, largely due to its direct border proximity to Southern California. For US-based intended parents, this often means the shortest possible transit window between departure and arrival.
Typical departure points: Southern California, Arizona, and the broader US West Coast
Why it matters here: Border proximity means less time in transit, which reduces the window in which anything could go wrong
How we handle it: Our courier hand-carries your eggs across the border in person, with all COFEPRIS and customs documentation prepared and confirmed in advance, so there's no waiting at the crossing while paperwork catches up
Guadalajara
Guadalajara has become a major hub for fertility treatment in Mexico's interior, with a growing base of accredited clinics serving both domestic and international patients.
Typical departure points: Central and southern US cities, often requiring a connecting flight
Why it matters here: Longer routing means our courier plans connections with built-in contingency time, protecting the dry shipper's safe temperature window
How we handle it: The same courier travels the entire route, hand-carrying your eggs through every connection, so there's no unaccompanied leg of the journey
Cancún
Cancún draws a significant number of intended parents pursuing fertility treatment in Mexico for the first time, often combining travel with treatment planning. It's also a common receiving point for eggs being shipped ahead of a patient's own travel.
Typical departure points: East Coast and southeastern US cities
Why it matters here: As a leading fertility-travel destination, Cancún clinics are accustomed to coordinating with international patients and courier arrivals
How we handle it: We coordinate directly with the receiving clinic on arrival timing, so your eggs are handed off promptly and with full chain-of-custody documentation
Mexico City
As Mexico's largest city and home to its highest density of fertility clinics, Mexico City is a frequent destination for both first-time and returning intended parents.
Typical departure points: Major US hubs with frequent direct flights, which can simplify routing
Why it matters here: More flight options can mean more flexibility, but also more choices to get right — routing still needs to be planned around the dry shipper's holding window
How we handle it: We select routing based on reliability, not just convenience, and our courier stays with your shipment for the entire journey into the clinic's hands
Comparing the Four Hubs
City | Typical US Departure Region | Flight Routing | Fertility Clinic Landscape | Best Suited For |
Tijuana | Southern California, Arizona, US West Coast | Direct border crossing — shortest transit window | Dense cluster of accredited clinics serving cross-border US patients | Fastest turnaround; ideal for time-sensitive shipments |
Guadalajara | Central and southern US | Connecting flight typically required | Growing hub of accredited clinics serving Mexico's interior | Patients treating outside the border zone |
Cancún | East Coast, southeastern US | Direct flights from major East Coast hubs | Strong fertility-tourism infrastructure, accustomed to international patients | Intended parents combining treatment with travel |
Mexico City | Major US hubs nationwide | Widest range of direct flight options | Mexico's highest density of fertility clinics | Patients wanting maximum clinic choice |
We work with a vetted network of accredited partner clinics across all four hubs; we don't publish individual clinic names here, but we're happy to share relevant options during your consultation.
Transport Packages and Cost
Every shipment is different — route, urgency, and the complexity of customs and permit handling all affect the final price. As a guide:

This starting price covers hand-carry transport, cryogenic dry shipper preparation, customs and permit management, and chain-of-custody documentation
