The answer

There is no objection to freezing embryos if the controls and legal prohibitions are met, such as the embryos remaining and being exposed to mixing or being used by others.

The Islamic Fiqh Academy has recommended leaving excess fertilized eggs without medical care so that they naturally cease to exist.

The procedures mentioned by the questioner are theoretically sufficient, but it remains to verify the trustworthiness of those in charge of the center.
