The topic of egg donation has become a well-established subject in international reproductive medicine. However, due to government regulations in Taiwan, local egg donation is limited to anonymous donations (meaning recipients cannot see donor photos) and has a compensation cap of NT$99,000.
On forums like PTT and Dcard, many users share their donation experiences — from how much compensation they received to the details of the medical process.
While the primary goal of egg donation is to help infertile couples or same-sex partners fulfill their dream of having children, the financial reward after a successful donation is also one of the main reasons many women are motivated to participate.
💰 How Much Does Overseas Egg Donation Pay?
According to Taiwan’s Assisted Reproduction Act, donors can legally receive up to NT$99,000 as compensation. The process must be done through a licensed fertility clinic approved by Taiwan’s Ministry of Health and Welfare.
After completing all medical screenings and donating successfully, donors receive the full compensation — but each person is only allowed to donate once in Taiwan.
In contrast, U.S. egg donation is legally protected under federal law, and donors can earn significantly higher compensation depending on the type of program:
U.S. Egg Banks (Clinic-based):
The clinic evaluates donors based on age, education, appearance, medical history, and genetic background.
💵 Average compensation: USD 8,000
🏠 Accommodation provided
✈️ Donors pay upfront for medical tests (about NT$16,000) and airfare, both reimbursed after egg retrieval.
🧬 Minimum of 20 eggs required, all donated to the clinic (none can be kept for personal use).Parent-Matching Programs:
Most intended parents are Chinese or Taiwanese families living in the U.S.
They choose donors based on photos, videos, and personal profiles.
💵 Starting compensation: USD 10,000 and up
✈️ Donors cover exam and flight costs upfront, reimbursed after donation.
🧬 Minimum of 20 eggs, all donated.
