Understanding DNA Testing for Immigration

DNA testing for immigration purposes involves using genetic testing to establish a biological relationship between individuals seeking to obtain a passport or citizenship in the United Kingdom.

This type of testing is often required by immigration authorities to verify familial relationships, particularly in cases where traditional documentation is insufficient or under question. The test results can be used to support immigration applications, reunite families, or satisfy legal requirements related to immigration processes.

  • Step 1

    Contact us by email or telephone at 0191 543 6334 to arrange for a personalised quotation depending on your testing requirements.

  • Step 2

    Once you are happy to proceed, we will take a £200 deposit at the time of ordering to cover the cost of the kit preparation and any courier fees. The residual balance must be paid in full before we can release the result.

  • Step 3

    Provide us with the full names and dates of birth of all test participants and the details of where each sample is to be collected.

  • Step 4

    We will arrange for the shipment of sampling kits to be sent to the destinations abroad if applicable and their subsequent return to the UK. Any UK sample collection appointments will be arranged.

  • Step 5

    From the date that we receive ALL samples for processing in the laboratory, we quote 4 working days for delivery of DNA test results. The contracting party shall receive a written copy of the DNA test report and we can also provide the Home Office/Passport Office or family Solicitor with a copy of the test result.

Important Information Regarding Sample Collections

Whether you are based internationally or locally, here’s what you need to know when arranging sample collections conveniently and efficiently.
