DNA Tests for Immigration

We act in cases of immigration into the UK and generally this is either or both of:

  • a) a paternity test to determine whether a tested male is the true biological father of a child,
  • b) a maternity test to determine whether a tested female is the true biological mother of a child.

Such DNA tests are often associated with immigration cases where the authorities wish to have evidence of the precise family relationship. This may be for Home Office applications, or HM Passport applications.

A maternity test is performed in exactly the same way as a paternity test and the results are just as accurate. As always, we strongly advise where possible to involve both parents in the test for a more conclusive result.

It is in the interest of your clients to precisely follow our identity check procedures and DNA sampling procedures and you can find information on this in a subsequent section.

Often, families will have at least one test participant residing overseas. We can accommodate sample collections outside of the UK using a Medical Centre in the families location.

Immigration authorities will often require both a maternity and a paternity test and you should check this before ordering.
