DNA relationship testing is about the comparison of two or more people’s DNA.
DNA profiling on the other hand is the analysis of an individual’s DNA to create a permanent record. With the exception of identical twins, every person’s DNA is unique. This means a DNA profile is like a fingerprint.
This ‘DNA fingerprint’ can be used in several ways:
- In the administration of an estate, a DNA profile of the deceased might be invaluable in verifying inheritance claims by those alleging a biological relationship.
- In a growing number of employment sectors, a DNA profile is mandatory before deployment in hostile or dangerous environments. It could be the only sure way to identify a person’s remains.
- If a child or adult goes missing, the availability of their DNA profile could help the authorities with tracing and identification.
Having your DNA profile on file is a sensible precaution which, if the worst should happen, could save time, eliminate doubt and reduce distress for your loved ones.

A DNA profile or typing report is a record of an individual’s DNA. Think of it as a ‘DNA fingerprint’ which can be useful in a variety of situations:
- as a record of identity for those in high risk occupations such as the armed forces, offshore oil workers
- inheritance claims
- missing persons cases
The cost of a DNA profile for one person is £279 complete.
We require the same identification evidence as we do for a Court Approved DNA test.
DNA profiling is a private service for clients who choose to order it. We do not maintain a ‘DNA database’ or share any information with the authorities.
