- Brain Research Lab: If you activate “Double Summon” or the effect of “Ultimate Offering” you can still activate [sic] the effect of “Brain Research Lab” to Normal Summon a Psychic-Type monster. Each effect is separate from the rest.

Mentions in Other Rulings
- Elemental HERO Necroshade: While there are 3 copies of "Elemental HERO Necroshade" in the Graveyard, if a Level 5 or higher "Elemental HERO" monster is Normal Summoned from the hand without a Tribute, 1 copy of "Elemental HERO Necroshade" is chosen and that effect is applied. (The effect of all 3 copies is not applied at once.) Furthermore, since the effect of Elemental HERO Necroshade does not let you perform multiple Normal Summons in a single turn, like "Double Summon" does, if you have already performed a Normal Summon during that turn, even if you have "Elemental HERO Necroshade" in your Graveyard, you cannot Normal Summon without a Tribute that turn.[1]
Previously Official Rulings
 | These TCG rulings were issued by Upper Deck Entertainment and have since been declared unofficial by Konami.[2] They were previously considered official and can still be correct, as long as they follow the official gameplay rules, or unless Konami has issued a ruling that says otherwise.

- You can activate this card before or after you use your Normal Summon for the turn. The extra Summon granted by this card's effect can be used any time you could Normal Summon, and you are not considered to be Summoning a monster with this card's effect.
- You can activate multiple copies of this card in the same turn, but you can only gain 1 extra Summon per turn from this card. You can gain additional Normal Summons from other cards like "Ultimate Offering", etc.
Mentions in Other Rulings
- Chain Summoning: If "Chain Summoning" and "Double Summon" are activated during the same turn, you still can only Normal Summon or Set up to 3 times.
- Cry Havoc!: If you activate "Double Summon" during your Main Phase and activate the effect of "Cry Havoc!", the Normal Summon or Set with "Cry Havoc!" does not use one of the 2 Normal Summons or Sets allowed with "Double Summon".
