Sars, I am sorry you misunderstood me.

I was not being rude but as the URL you supplied referred to postal tests, I was pointing out that such tests would, almost certainly, not be accepted by UK consulate as they could so easily be manipulated.

Rather like someone sending fingerprints in the post to get a certificate to confirm who they are.

Unless the test proves the continuity of the chain (who the sample came from) it would prove nothing. That is why when in UK one applies for a passport, in UK at least, someone needs to certify that the photo is a good likeness of the applicant and that the details are believed to be correct.

John what you say is true, but a postal test will still prove whether your the childs father or not, the result may not be accepted by the embassy, but i'm sure the result would be good enough for most people to accept, without having to go to the phils or paying for a more expensive test..
