Assisted reproduction and parentage

IVF, surrogacy and sperm paternity DNA test cost

DNA testing in IVF or surrogacy situations can help clarify a biological relationship between a child and an intended or genetic parent, such as a sperm provider. It should be considered alongside treatment records, donor information, consent documents and the arrangement’s legal terms.

Biological relationship is not the same as legal parenthood. Intended parents, gestational carriers, donors and clinics may have different rights and responsibilities under the applicable arrangement. Coordinate with the fertility clinic and obtain specialist legal advice before testing or sharing results.

Coordinate with the clinic

Ask the fertility clinic how samples, embryo or donor records and identity details should be handled. The proposed test participants and timing should be agreed with the responsible adults and professionals, particularly when a newborn is involved.

Privacy and formal use

Genetic findings may reveal donor or family information that people did not expect. Confirm consent and report access in advance. If the result is intended for an authority, request a documented collection pathway and check the authority’s requirements independently.

Do not test a child without appropriate parental or guardian consent.
Keep fertility-clinic records and laboratory records linked but securely stored.
Ask about counselling when results may affect a family or donor relationship.

Questions patients ask

Before you decide

What is the cost of the IVF Surrogacy Sperm Paternity Test?

The test costs INR 13000 at DNA Labs India, which includes home sample collection and report delivery.

How is the sample collected for this test?

The sample is collected using a painless buccal swab (cheek swab) or a blood sample. Buccal swabs are most common and can be done at home.

Is fasting required before the test?

No, fasting is not required. However, if you are providing a buccal swab, avoid eating, drinking, or smoking for 30 minutes before collection.

How long does it take to get the results?

Results are typically available within 10 days after the samples reach the laboratory.

Can this test be used for legal purposes?

Yes, if you require legal documentation, you must inform us in advance so we can follow the chain-of-custody protocol.

Is the test accurate?

Yes, the test is highly accurate with a probability of paternity greater than 99.9% when the alleged father is the biological father.

Can the test be done on an infant?

Yes, the test can be performed on infants using a buccal swab. It is safe and non-invasive.

Do I need to provide consent for the test?

Yes, all participants (or legal guardians for minors) must sign consent documents before sample collection.

Is home sample collection available?

Yes, we offer free home sample collection for online bookings in over 200 cities across India.

What if the alleged father is not available?

If the alleged father is unavailable, you may consider other relationship tests, such as a sibling DNA test, but paternity cannot be confirmed without the father's sample.

Can this test determine the mother?

No, this test is specifically for paternity. A separate maternity test would be needed to confirm the biological mother.

Are the results confidential?

Yes, we maintain strict confidentiality. Results are shared only with the authorized individuals via secure channels.
