AUSTRALIAN babies may be left stateless due to a change in India's surrogacy laws.
India has recently banned foreign gay couples, de facto heterosexual couples and singles from using surrogate mothers to become parents.
The changes require the couple to be a man and women who have been married for at least two years.
The sudden change has left dozens of expectant parents currently awaiting the birth of their babies in breach of Indian law, the ABC's Lateline program reports.
Paul Taylor Burns and his partner Josh, who are awaiting the birth of their twins, said they met the requirements when they first signed the contract.
"When we went over there in July we were under the impression that everything was absolutely fine," Mr Burns, from Perth, said.
"We know that we don't meet the new criteria, we know that our contracts have been signed after the cut-off date.
"The biggest worry is what's going to happen when we get there.
"Are the babies going to get the visa to exit the country?
"Is there any possibility of the babies not being able to leave?
"Are we potentially going to be prosecuted?"
