Location Map

In Brookings, TestMark DNA schedules chain-of-custody DNA collections at 601 4th St, Suite 110, inside the historic 1921 Building downtown. The building is across the street from the lawn of the Brookings County Courthouse at 4th Street and 6th Avenue, where the county's Clerk of Courts is located.

The 1921 Building at 601 4th Street is a renovated historic building in downtown Brookings that combines apartments with professional office space, and TestMark DNA's collection site is in its Suite 110. It stands next to the Children's Museum of South Dakota and directly across the street from the tree-shaded lawn of the Brookings County Courthouse, which sits at 4th Street and 6th Avenue. The address is included in the Brookings Central Residential Historic District on the National Register of Historic Places. Other offices share the building, including a counseling practice in Suite 111, so look for the Suite 110 door once you are inside.

Brookings sits about 55 miles north of Sioux Falls, with I-29 and U.S. 14 as its main highway links, and public transit around the 1921 Building is minimal, so plan to drive. Court paperwork is close at hand: the 1912 Brookings County Courthouse at 314 6th Avenue houses the Clerk of Courts, Court Services and Court Administration. Brookings is also the administrative base of South Dakota's Third Judicial Circuit. The circuit's presiding judge and circuit court administrator work out of Brookings, and its 14 counties include Lake, Moody, Kingsbury, Deuel and Codington.

TestMark DNA's Brookings collection site is in Suite 110 of the 1921 Building at 601 4th Street, across the street from the Brookings County Courthouse.

What to Expect at Your Appointment

DNA testing at our Brookings, South Dakota collection site is straightforward, painless, and typically takes less than 30 minutes. Here is what to know before you visit 601 4th St 110.

Bring a Government-Issued ID

Adults bring a driver's license, state ID, or passport. Children under 18 do not need ID. A birth certificate is helpful for legal tests but not required for personal tests.

The Sample Is a Painless Cheek Swab

Collection takes about a minute. A trained technician rubs a soft cotton swab on the inside of the cheek for each tested party. No needles, no blood, no fasting required.

Plan for 15–30 Minutes on Site

Children Can Be Tested at Any Age

Infants, toddlers, and minors are all eligible. The cheek swab is the same regardless of age. For legal tests involving a minor, the custodial parent or legal guardian must be present to sign the chain-of-custody form.

Pricing & Payment

DNA test pricing in Brookings, South Dakota depends on the specific test you need. Call TestMark DNA for a free consultation. We will confirm the exact price for your situation before you visit the collection site.

Pricing Varies by Test Type

Paternity, maternity, sibling, grandparent, immigration, and home kit tests are each priced differently. Legal (court-admissible) tests cost more than personal-knowledge tests because they include chain-of-custody documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I get a DNA paternity test in Brookings, South Dakota?

TestMark DNA has a certified collection site at 601 4th St 110, Brookings, South Dakota 57006. We schedule chain-of-custody (legal) collections here for you, and results are typically returned in 3 to 5 business days.

Do I need a doctor's order or court order for DNA testing in South Dakota?

A doctor's order is generally not required. However, if you are a New York State resident, a prescription, court order, or ordering by other authorized persons is required by state law for all DNA identity or relationship tests.

Can DNA testing be done without the mother present?

Yes. A DNA paternity test can be performed without a sample from the child's biological mother. Including the mother's sample is preferred when possible as it improves accuracy.

How long do DNA test results take near Brookings?

Results for a standard DNA paternity test are typically returned within 3 to 5 business days from when all samples are received at the laboratory.

Is DNA testing confidential?

Yes. All samples are packaged in tamper-proof bags and processed at an accredited laboratory with restricted access. Results are shared only with authorized individuals and are never released over the phone.

What type of sample is collected for a DNA test?

The standard sample is a buccal swab - a cotton swab rubbed gently inside the inner cheek. It is painless, non-invasive, and provides the same accuracy as a blood sample.

Will DNA test results be accepted in court?

Results from a legal DNA paternity test performed at an accredited facility may be accepted in court, provided the chain-of-custody form was completed according to laboratory guidelines. Non-legal test results are not intended for court use.

Is DNA paternity testing covered by health insurance?

DNA paternity testing is considered a non-medical test and is not covered by health insurance plans.

Where is the Brookings County Clerk of Courts in relation to the 601 4th Street site?

The Brookings County Clerk of Courts is inside the Brookings County Courthouse at 314 6th Avenue. The courthouse lawn is directly across the street from the 1921 Building, so the clerk's office and the collection site in Suite 110 are a short walk apart.
