Can the tellmeGen genetic test be used as a paternity or relationship test?

Updated on

No. Although our genetic analysis can identify close biological relationships, such as parent-child or sibling relationships, with very high reliability, we have no way of verifying that the sample actually belongs to the person who registers it. Therefore, it is not legally valid as a paternity test or as evidence in court.

To view your genetic relatives, both you and the other person must have your genetic analysis results in our database and have activated DNA Connect.
