DNA testing in NYC: Paternity, Immigration & Prenatal
Confidential, appointment-based DNA testing across all NYC boroughs.
NYC DNA Testing provides private, appointment-only DNA testing across all five boroughs. We offer in-person sample collection, documented chain of custody, and results for personal knowledge or official purposes, depending on the type of test you need.
Immigration DNA Testing for USCIS & Embassy Cases
If USCIS, a U.S. embassy, or a consulate has requested DNA evidence, that's a specialized process — the case must be initiated through an AABB-accredited laboratory and routed through official channels. We coordinate the entire process from any of our five NYC locations.
