Paternity Tests

For home, legal and immigration testing, sample collection is done using one of our kits. If you are doing a home paternity test, you can easily collect samples yourself whilst for legal and immigration testing, you will need a sampler. Collecting samples is easy and painless- it is done through a standard oral swab that is rubbed inside the mouth for ten seconds. No pain and no hassles! Of course the kit will include detailed instructions to follow and you can also obtain more information by visiting our DNA sample collection guide. Just send us your and we will give you the results a few working days later. You can collect your kit in person from one of our offices with prior arrangement and once your case number has been allocated. If you require separate kits to be sent to different addresses or countries then click here.

Where it is not possible to use mouth swabs, we provide testing through samples such as hair, blood, semen, cigarette butts. Please visit our DNA forensic section to learn more.

GTLDNA offers paternity testing that is fast, accurate and affordable. Our accredited home paternity test for 1 child and alleged Father is priced at only 3,350 HKD. The price includes the DNA testing kit, laboratory analysis and results. Your test results will be ready in 5-7 working days (or 3 working days if you choose our express option).

The home paternity test can be carried out with samples from the alleged father and the child, however we do suggest including the mother’s sample where possible as this could help us give you a more accurate result.

Our samples are analyzed with state-of-the-art genetic identification systems using 16 different genetic markers. The results guarantee minimum probabilities in excess of 99.99%+ in cases where the alleged father is the biological father of the child. We also confirm with 100% accuracy when the father is excluded as the biological father.

Please note that with non invasive prenatal paternity testing the probability of paternity is always 99.9% in cases where the tested male is the biological father of the child.

GTLDNA can provide you with legal paternity testing – our test is NATA accredited and the results can be presented in a court of law or to the Hong Kong immigration authorities as evidence of a biological relationship between father and child. Other reasons for doing this test might include: challenging a will, providing evidence in a court of law or changing the name on a birth certificate. The results can be presented to government departments, Family Law Courts and Immigration Services.

If the alleged father cannot be tested, GTLDNA can help you out by suggesting one of the many relationship tests we offer. Thanks to these tests, we can help you get the answer you need by testing relatives of the alleged father but not testing the alleged father himself. We can carry out sibling testing, grandparents testing or aunt/uncle testing. GTLDNA provides full customer support via telephone and e-mail. Our management team has a minimum of 9 years’ experience in the field of paternity testing and are always at hand to assist you with your case. Our laboratories are accredited by both NATA and ISO 17025 so you can rest assured about the quality of your results.
