Prices are copied as published, in the provider's currency. Conversions use the European Central Bank reference rates of 23 October 2026 and are rounded. A provider can change a price at any time: ask for a written quote.
Some Bangkok hospitals publish lower package prices that are only for Thai nationals and foreigners living in Thailand. MedPark Hospital's colonoscopy package, for example, says “The price is exclusively for Thai nationals and expatriates residing in Thailand” (MedPark). We leave such prices out. The Bumrungrad surgical prices here come from a 2025 sheet hosted by an insurer, so ask the hospital for its current price.

Paying privately in Canada: C$9,000–C$13,500, from TRIO Fertility and CReATe Fertility Centre.
Can your provincial plan pay?
Ask your provincial health plan before you book. We have not reviewed provincial rules for planned care abroad yet, and they differ by province.
Planning the trip from Canada
- Get a written quoteSend the clinic your referral or reason for an IVF cycle and ask for an itemised price in writing, with the date and what happens if the result needs follow-up.
- Before you goCheck what your home health service funds first. NICE in England recommends up to three cycles under 40, but local health boards decide, and the HSE in Ireland funds one round for eligible couples.
- Before you goAsk the clinic for a written plan with dates, medicines and every fee, and agree how embryos are stored if you do not use them all.
- Entry rulesCheck the official advice before booking: Canadian citizens (travel.gc.ca).
- LanguageThai; the large Bangkok private hospitals work in English and many other languages.
- After you returnTell your GP if you are pregnant after treatment abroad, with the clinic’s report on the transfer.
- After you returnSevere tummy pain, swelling or breathlessness after egg collection can be a reaction to the hormones and needs urgent care.

IVF in Thailand from Canada: questions
How much is an IVF cycle in Thailand for Canadians?
The published prices we found work out at C$6,220–C$14,520 at the clinic, from Gift Fertility and Genesis Fertility Center. With an example return flight of C$1,600 and 14 hotel nights at C$140, the trip comes to about C$9,780. Your own fares and dates will change the total.
Is it cheaper than paying privately in Canada?
No, not on these example figures: the lowest self-pay price we found at home is C$9,000, about C$781 less than the cheapest trip. It can make sense if you are already travelling to Thailand.
How long is the wait for an IVF cycle in Canada?
We have not found an official waiting-time figure for this in Canada.
How many days do I need in Thailand?
About 2 to 3 weeks for a fresh cycle if you start the injections at the clinic; less if the clinic lets you start them at home and come for the last scans, egg collection and transfer. That is our planning estimate, not medical advice; ask the clinic for its schedule in writing.
Will my provincial plan pay for it?
Ask your provincial health plan before booking; we have not reviewed provincial rules for planned care abroad.
