As a top DNA testing lab, customers ask, “How much does a DNA test cost?” At-home testing has exploded in the last few years and there are so many options to choose from that there really isn’t a single answer to that all-important question. The two most popular DNA tests are paternity and ancestry, so we’ll start with those and then move on to others.
How Much Does a DNA Test Cost?
For a paternity test performed at an accredited laboratory, the cost is $130 to $200 if you collect DNA at home. If you need results for court, the cost is $300 to $500. The cost of a DNA test for ancestry runs from $49 to $200 or more, depending on types of info included.
Cost for Relationship DNA Tests
Maternity DNA Test: This type of analysis determines whether the woman tested is the biological mother of the child tested. It is often used in cases of immigration and adoption.
Cost of this test is approximately: $200-$450
Grandparent DNA Test: When an alleged father is not available to test, DNA for one or both paternal grandparents + the mother + the child is analyzed to determine a biological link.
Cost of this test is approximately: $300-$500
Sibling DNA Test: Full-sibling and half-sibling tests can help establish a biological brother/sister relationship. It’s especially useful for immigration and inheritance purposes.
Cost of this test is approximately: $300-$500
Aunt-Uncle DNA Test: This type of analysis compares the DNA of a sibling of the father in question with the DNA of a child to determine if they have a biological relationship.
Cost of this test is approximately: $300-$500
Family Reconstruction DNA Test: This analysis tests DNA from a variety of close family members to determine biological relationships, most often to identify the father of a child.
Cost of this test is approximately: $450-$650
Twin Zygosity DNA Test: This analysis confirms whether twins are identical or fraternal. 70% of twins with two amniotic sacs during pregnancy are fraternal, but 30% are actually identical.
Cost of this test is approximately: $250
Wrapping It Up
So how much does a DNA test cost? You really can’t put a price on the peace of mind that comes from confirming close biological relationships. Nevertheless, accredited labs like DDC understand that doing any type of DNA test is both a financial and emotional investment, so we work hard to ensure results are fast and accurate.

I met someone and come to find out we have the same last name and I wanted to know how much would it be to get a DNA test to see if we are related at all
Hi, Mary. The way you might accomplish this is to test through an ancestry company like Ancestry.com or 23 and Me. They might be able to find more distant relationships if you are related. Our tests are to answer specific closer biological-relationship questions. For example, “Is this person my sister?”
Can the results be mailed to me
Hi, Walter. Online access is available to the person who set up the account. That person can download the PDF and print it, if they want to. If you participated in the test and want a hard copy of the result, you’ll need to call us at 800-831-1906.
Do you do analysis to find out what chemicals I might be allergic to? Whether my family has alcohol issues and things of that nature. I know I am being a bit awkward stating my query
Hi, Thomas. No, we do not perform that type of testing.
Can you test a niece to see if your mother is your biological mother

Hi,
Is a dna profile possible based on a specific testing method.
Example: Locus: D3S1358 SI 0.85
I have a report with a list of testing like above.
I need an second opinion of my profile only for the Allele Sizes.

Hi! The SI (sibling index) number is based on an algorithm specific for the relationship tested, i.e. full or half sibship. To give a second opinion on allele sizes, we would need to test the samples.

How much for native American dna test
Hi, Estevan. There is no such thing as a test that tells you what tribe you belong to. Our testing for native Americans is for when someone is applying for tribe membership and needs to show they are biologically related to someone who is already a member of a tribe. This test could be paternity, maternity, grandparent, and more. If you are applying for tribal membership and need one of these tests, give us a call at 800.319.9099.
