A basic IVF cycle with your own eggs costs about €2,200 to €2,500 in Poland, €2,500 to €3,500 in the Czech Republic and Greece, and €3,600 to €6,700 in Spain. IVF with donor eggs costs about €5,500 to €7,000 in the Czech Republic, Greece, Poland and North Cyprus, and €6,500 to €8,500 in Spain. Those are package prices, and the package is rarely the final bill.
Add three things. Medication: €800 to €2,000 for ovarian stimulation, less for a donor egg cycle where only the recipient’s preparation drugs are needed. Extras: PGT-A embryo testing costs €1,000 to €3,000 in Europe, and embryo freezing, a frozen transfer or donor sperm each add several hundred euros. Travel: flights and one or two stays, which the clinic will never include. A worked example for the Czech Republic: package €3,000, medication €1,500, screening tests €400, embryo freezing €500 and two trips €1,000, so about €6,400 in total. A realistic all-in figure for an own-egg cycle abroad is €4,500 to €7,000 including medication and travel. For comparison, the HFEA puts one private cycle in the UK at about £5,000 before extras, UK patients report £5,000 to £13,000 all in, and a cycle in the United States costs about $15,000 to $30,000 including medication.
Two tools help. Cheapest IVF in Europe lists package prices by country and what each includes. The IVF cost calculator lets you pick the treatment, the country and the extras your clinic mentioned, and gives a low and high estimate in euros.
