“For Russian citizens who are married, as well as single women, this opportunity remains. The ban will not apply to cases where a Russian citizen is in a registered marriage with a foreigner,” the State Duma, lower house of the parliament, said in a statement.

It also added that a child born in Russia by a surrogate mother who has entered into a surrogacy agreement with potential parents or a single woman will be able to acquire Russian citizenship by birth.

The State Duma previously announced on Dec. 8 that lawmakers adopted the bill in the second and third readings.
