Two separate questions

Institutions assess a DNA report on two fronts: the scientific analysis, and the process that produced the sample. A technically excellent result with undocumented collection may still be rejected.

What reviewers typically look for

  • Identity verification of every donor
  • Independent, supervised collection
  • Unbroken documented custody from collection to laboratory
  • Analysis by a qualified, accredited laboratory
  • A signed report with clear methodology and statistics

Acceptance is decided by the recipient

Whether a specific report satisfies a specific proceeding is determined by the court, agency or registry involved — never by the testing service. We can only ensure the process meets recognised legal-collection standards.

Recommendation

If a lawyer or caseworker is involved, ask them in writing what they require before you book.
