It's a quicker hack than a couple of decades raising your offspring yourself, compared to letting someone else who's keen to do so do so ;-)
If you're a resident that's fine, I think. Find a reason to live here for a year ;-) They need positive ID - I used my Australian passport, but they just wrote down that it was an Australian passport and its number.
You're in Italy - what's the state of sperm donation there? If you're Italian, of course, you have that magical EU passport.
Unless the law has changed recently and/or I misremember it, in vitro fertilization with sperm other than your husband's is forbidden altogether.(Even with your husband's sperm, you have to jump through an absurd amount of hoops. The most obvious culprit is the Catholic Church's stance that embryos are people, but given what else I know about Italy I wouldn't be terribly surprised to find out that someone is profiting by doing that clandestinely.)
That's an actual requirement?
No, I mean having a steady UK address while you're a donor, which is something on the order of months. It's not actually a requirement.
