The easiest most accurate fastest Paternity Test in Australia

Home Test Kit: 
Paternity Testing used to be complicated for two reasons: Making the decision and doing the test itself.

The home kit simplifies the actual “doing” of the test to make it as convenient as possible

If you have any questions regarding your personal situation, please feel free to contact our friendly office.

Reliable results guaranteed: 
Highest accuracy available in Australia. We are testing 24 regions of your DNA (compared to the standard of 16).

Quick peace of mind:
Results in 3 days as a standard

Fastest express option of 2 days available.

Based in Australia and your samples therefore are not shipped overseas (unlike many other DNA testing websites).

The primary purpose of this kit is to provide personal insights, if you need the results to be admissible in court (for example to change a birth certificate or for immigration), please refer to our legal test page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Accurate is the Home Kit?

What if I can't see the Child?

For paternity testing, we typically get an accuracy above 99.99%.

Other relationship tests (ie. brother to sister tests) can vary between 99% to 99.9%.

The actual accuracy number depends on what type of DNA you have and how rare each point of DNA we test is in the whole population.

More DNA types shared by all tested individuals increase the likelihood they are related.

At DNA Solutions we test 24 regions of DNA in each person. (Industry standard is 16)

This enables us to prove paternity with over 99.99% accuracy.

If the regions don’t match, tested individuals are 100% not related.

No.

We need the terms and conditions read and signed by one person who is taking responsibility for the test.

Paternity tests can be performed with samples from the Father and child only.

All clients information and DNA test results are strictly confidential.

Results will only be issued to the person who signed the sample submission form.

We also request a password from you for your added protection and confidentiality.

We can work with a variety of biological samples.

However, for paternity testing we recommend a mouth swab, as this is completely reliable and painless. Hair samples are also common but can be more difficult to take.

Children with fine hair, and elderly with grey hair, usually do not provide good hair specimens.

You will receive the results via your preferred way of communication. 

Attached to the the DNA Home Kit there are forms for you to fill out for us to know.

Most people choose to get notified either via mail or a phone call about the result of their paternity test.

Our DNA Tests are done within 3 business days, with the option of express results in 2 business days.

Some non-standard DNA tests may take a little longer. In essence times vary depending on how busy the laboratory is.

TESTING PROCESS
The Paternity test is performed in 3 lab areas.
Lab Area 1. DNA Extraction. Here we purify your DNA from the samples so they are in a sterile buffer solution
Lab Area 2. “DNA keys” are added to your DNA. Each “key” responds to one of the DNA regions listed (above). The “keys” attach to your DNA and will reveal to us the type of DNA you have in each of these areas.
Lab Area 3. The DNA is analysed using modern capillary electrophoresis DNA profiling machines (Applied Biosystems), and the DNA in each of the 24 regions is compared between father and child (and Mother if included). Note: Having the DNA of the mother increases the accuracy.
