National ART register · in plain words
India licenses every fertility clinic at one of two levels.
The register records which level each clinic holds, in a table with no explanation and no search. This site puts that record in plain words.
The register states no level for the remaining 352 clinics. We say so on their pages rather than guess. Nine states and union territories, including Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, publish no clinics into this register at all.
Rule 3 of the ART Rules, 2022 says a Level 1 clinic carries out only intrauterine insemination. Egg retrieval, fertilisation outside the body and embryo transfer all require Level 2. If you are being offered IVF somewhere registered at Level 1, that is the first question to ask.
What the two levels mean →A certificate is granted for five years, and renewal has to be applied for sixty days before it lapses. The register prints the date on a scanned certificate, not in the table. We read those certificates, and show the date beside each clinic.
What the law requires of a clinic →| Procedure | Level 1 | Level 2 |
|---|---|---|
| IUI: placing prepared sperm in the uterus | Yes | Yes |
| IVF: fertilising eggs outside the body | No | Yes |
| ICSI: injecting a single sperm into an egg | No | Yes |
| Egg retrieval, embryo transfer | No | Yes |
| Freezing gametes or embryos | No | Yes |
| Donor eggs or sperm | Needs a registered ART bank, which this register does not list | |
| Surrogacy | Separate registration under the Surrogacy Act, 2021 | |
Source: Rule 3, ART (Regulation) Rules, 2022, read with Schedule 1 (staff) and Schedule 2 (equipment). A level is a licence, not a rating.
The page opens with what this clinic is registered for, said in one line. Not what it advertises, but what its licence covers.
Registration number, the authority that issued it, the date it runs to, and a link to the scanned certificate the clinic filed.
Five or six questions drawn from that clinic's own record, to ask at the desk before you sign anything.
What this site is not
Every clinic gets a page, including the ones with nothing to brag about. No clinic can pay to appear, to rank higher, or to have a page removed. There is no enquiry form, because we do not sell your phone number.
We do not rate quality. The register does not say whether a clinic is good. Success rates, doctors, equipment and prices are not in it, so they are not on these pages.
We only restate what the government published. Names, addresses, registration numbers and levels come from the National ART & Surrogacy Registry. We do not add, infer or correct them.
If we have something wrong, tell us and we will fix it, and if the register itself is wrong, we will show your correction beside the official line rather than over it.
