Best Legal and Immigration Paternity DNA Testing in London and UK

Greenplace Healthcare provides the most authoritative, fully compliant legal and immigration paternity DNA testing in London and across the UK—meeting strict Home Office and government standards for admissibility and reliability.

Government & Home Office Accreditation

All DNA tests for legal or immigration use must be performed by a Ministry of Justice accredited laboratory. For cases involving the courts or the Home Office (visa, passport, or citizenship applications), laboratories must have ISO/IEC17025 accreditation and strictly follow the Home Office sample collection process, including independent witnessing for identity confirmation. Choosing a government-recognized provider ensures your DNA evidence is accepted and avoids costly retesting. Greenplace Healthcare has partnered with the UK's leading laboratories.

Why Legal DNA Testing Matters

Legal paternity DNA testing is essential for UK family courts, parental responsibility determinations, inheritance disputes, and child passport amendments. Only tests done via government-accredited providers—like Greenplace Healthcare—are legally admissible in court proceedings, protecting your interests and meeting official requirements at every stage.

Immigration DNA Testing: Home Office Standards

For immigration, passport, and citizenship claims, the Home Office requires DNA evidence to be collected under independent witness by accredited labs, with strict chain-of-custody and participant ID protocols. Greenplace Healthcare offers sample collection across all London boroughs and nationwide, ensuring international family reunion, surrogacy, and embassy cases are handled in full accordance with Home Office guidance.
