What is a grandparent DNA test?
A grandparent DNA test is used to determine a biological relationship between a child and one or both grandparents.
It can help verify paternity when the alleged father is unavailable.
Why would I use a grandparent test instead of a paternity test?
A grandparent test is useful when the alleged father cannot or will not take part in a paternity test.
By testing the paternal grandparents, we can still assess the biological link to the child.
How accurate is a grandparent DNA test?
When both grandparents are tested, the results can be over 99% conclusive in establishing a relationship.
If only one grandparent is available, accuracy may be slightly lower but still highly reliable.
What samples are required?
We use a simple, non-invasive cheek swab from each participant.
Instructions are included in your kit and collection takes just a few minutes.
Do we need the child's DNA as well?
Yes, including the child's DNA improves the accuracy of the results.
If the child cannot be tested, results may be less conclusive.
Is the mother's DNA needed?
Providing the mother’s DNA is optional but highly recommended.
It helps eliminate her half of the child’s genetic profile, making the analysis more precise.
How long does it take to get results?
Once all samples have been received by our lab, you'll typically get results within 3–5 working days.
Faster options may be available.
Can these results be used in court?
Yes — we offer legal grandparent DNA tests that follow chain-of-custody procedures and are accepted by courts for immigration, custody, and inheritance matters.
Is the test confidential?
Absolutely. All information, samples, and results are handled with complete confidentiality in line with UK data protection laws.
Can I do the test if I live in a different location to the child?
Yes. We can arrange for separate kits to be sent to different addresses.
This allows each participant to collect their sample from the comfort of their own home.
