DNA testing requirements in New Jersey
New Jersey does not require a prescription or doctor's order for a DNA paternity test. Under N.J.S.A. 9:17-41, the parent-child relationship is established either by a Certificate of Parentage signed by the father and filed with the State, or by a court order based on genetic testing. In a contested case either party can request genetic testing, and a statistical probability of 95 percent or greater creates a rebuttable presumption of paternity. For a result to be used in a New Jersey court, the test must be run by an accredited laboratory with a completed chain-of-custody form, which means collection at a certified site with government ID from everyone tested. A home kit gives you a private answer but is not accepted for child support, custody or a birth certificate change. Call if you are unsure which one you need.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I get a DNA paternity test in Teaneck, New Jersey?
TestMark DNA has a certified collection site at 463 Cedar Ln, Teaneck, New Jersey 7666. 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 New Jersey?
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 Teaneck?
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.
