Y chromosome testing is ideal for situations when two or more male individuals wish to confirm whether they share the same father or have a common paternal relative. This test, carried out exclusively between males, is a highly accurate and conclusive sibling test.

Key Features of the Y Chromosome Test
About the Y chromosome
Due to the specifications of the New York State Department of Health's regulations, we cannot offer home paternity tests to New York residents. However, we can offer legal paternity and relationship tests in New York. Contact us or click here for more information.
Males from the same male parental line will also share the same Y chromosome profile. Male offspring inherit their Y chromosome from their father and they will, in turn, pass on the same Y chromosome if they themselves have male offspring. A female cannot directly carry out a Y chromosome test because she has no Y chromosome. However, she can still trace her paternal ancestry and carry out a Y chromosome test indirectly by asking any male biological relative to take the test on her behalf. The cost of the Y chromosome test is $299. Once the DNA samples are received at the laboratory, you will receive your comprehensive DNA analysis report in 5-7 working days.
Note: We can only guarantee standard result turnaround time when testing takes place solely using oral swab samples. Using a discreet sample for your test may lead to an increase in turnaround time.
When would a Y chromosome test be needed?
About your Y test
Once your samples are received at the laboratory they will be made available to our clients within just 5-7 business days. Your DNA test report will show whether the Y chromosome profiles match, thereby confirming or excluding a biological relationship.
If you have questions regarding the process for sample collection, please visit our sample collection guide HERE. Any other questions can be directed to us via email and we promise to respond in a timely manner.
Interested in your ancient paternal ancestry?
EasyDNA offers ancestry DNA testing services. If you want to discover your ancient paternal ancestors and locate their origins from thousands and thousands of years back, then we suggest doing a paternal lineage ancestry test. A paternal lineage ancestry test also relies on the analysis of the Y chromosome but the results will reveal much about your ancestry than a Y chromosome test would.
A Y chromosome test will only tell you whether two people have the same Y chromosome profile which confirms they have the same paternal lineage.
Siblingship testing
If siblings taking part in the same test are of mixed gender (ie. brothers and sisters that need to compare their DNA against each other), then we suggest a full siblings DNA test. This test will confirm whether siblings tested are full siblings, half siblings or not siblings at all. The test offers accurate results depending on the amount of DNA shared between the test participants.

The Human Tissue Act
It is important to be aware that in the UK the Human Tissue Act regulates the collection and analysis of any human tissue. In order to send a sample for analysis, the person or donor of that sample must give their consent in writing in order for us to test their sample. Furthermore, in order to be fully compliant with the Human Tissue Act, the donor of the sample must also be made aware of how their DNA sample will be used. Failure to comply with the Human Tissue Act is a criminal offence.
We will not proceed with any testing if we do not have consent from all test participants. Testing any samples will be put on hold until we get the required signatures from all individuals.
