​​Can the informational DNA test be used for legal purposes?

A Peace of Mind DNA test typically, refers to a non-legal DNA test intended for personal knowledge or reassurance, such as paternity or ancestry tests. These tests are generally conducted without strict chain-of-custody procedures, meaning the identity of the person providing the sample is not legally verified. Therefore, the results from these tests cannot be used for legal purposes.

For legal matters such as child custody, inheritance disputes, or immigration cases, a legal DNA test is required. Legal DNA tests follow a documented chain-of-custody process, ensuring that the samples are properly collected, handled, and submitted by authorized personnel. This guarantees that the test results are admissible in court.

​

In summary, Peace of Mind DNA tests are not valid for legal use, and you would need a legal DNA test for any situation involving legal proceedings.
