Can I use my 23andMe kit for multiple family members?

Asked a year ago
No, each 23andMe kit is designed for one individual and cannot be used for multiple family members. To ensure accurate and reliable results, each kit is uniquely assigned to a specific user. This personalized approach allows for accurate genetic analysis and identification of inherited traits and health risks specific to an individual. If multiple family members are interested in using 23andMe, each person will need their own kit to fully benefit from the individualized genetic insights and personalized reports. Sharing or using a single kit for multiple family members may compromise the accuracy and usefulness of the results. Therefore, it is recommended for each family member to purchase their own kit to unlock the full potential of 23andMe's genetic testing services.
