In order for one or more women who are not his sexual partners to become pregnant by him, a man must donate his sperm with the purpose that it be used in artificial insemination or another type of "fertility treatment" on those women. The sperm donor will be the biological father of each child born from his donations in cases when pregnancies are carried to term.

Donor sperm insemination is a fertility treatment where sperm from a donor is used to help a woman conceive. This process is available in New Zealand through licensed clinics. The sperm is screened and tested for health and infectious diseases.
Donors are usually anonymous, but some clinics offer the option of non-anonymous or known donors. Waiting times can vary depending on availability of suitable donors. Costs include consultation fees, insemination procedure, and medication.
