Informative or legally valid

With an informative paternity test you do not actually have to take legislation into account. For a reliable result it is especially important to follow our instructions carefully. You will receive all the necessary information and two sterile cotton swabs with which you can take the paternity test. You then send the DNA material in the pre-addressed envelope to the laboratory, which performs an analysis and informs you of the results within a few days.

The paternity test legislation mainly applies to the legally valid DNA test. In that case, you must meet a number of conditions in order to cover a number of things legally.

Paternity Test Legislation

The paternity test legislation prescribes a strict administration procedure. You must take the samples in the presence of an independent and professional witness; like a doctor. This witness must not be related to any of the participants and must not have a clear interest in a particular result. In addition, all those directly involved must give permission for the paternity test and the paternity test legislates that everyone must identify themselves.

Furthermore, all participants and the witness must sign a copy of their ID and the samples are sealed and sent to the laboratory after filling in the data under the supervision of the witness. The paternity test legislation states that the result of the DNA test is only legally valid if all strict conditions are met.

When do I opt for a legally valid DNA test?

In a number of cases it is important to use a legally valid DNA test and to comply with the paternity test legislation. For example, in discussions about the guardianship arrangement or the alimony arrangement. Or if you want clarity about paternity in connection with visitation or visitation arrangements. Or when it comes to recognition or an inheritance. As with any family reunification, it is important in those cases to follow the paternity test legislation and to opt for a legally valid paternity test.
