Abstract
The Law on Protection of Family and Youth of the Population (2021) has raised numerous concerns and questions from various angles. Among them, a challenging issue has been the registration and disclosure of identity information of gamete and embryo donors. This issue is not unique to the Iranian legal system and has been raised in many existing legal systems, in response to which certain legal provisions have been devised. The present study aims to show, through a comparative study of different legal systems followed with a critical analysis of them, which model will be the most appropriate and efficient for the current Iranian legal system. In fact, this study aims to attempt to construct a local model from among the existing models, i.e. those of mandatory anonymous donation, mandatory non-anonymous donation, and optional. It should be noted that it is rarely the case that two legal systems being similar in every respect, even those systems that follow the same model, e.g. the non-anonymous donation one. However, the problem and challenge are common among diverse legal systems, though finding a common legal answer to them seems impossible. Rather, each ecosystem is bound to make the necessary decision based on its own specific social, cultural, and legal conditions, in a way that takes into account the interests of all parties.
