About Our Tests
PCR test
The laboratory antigen test will confirm whether someone has the virus at the time of sampling by detecting the genetic material (RNA) of the SARS-Cov-2 virus. This express COVID-19 PCR testing service comes with your travel certificate issued at no additional cost. Results will be returned within 48 hours of your test.
You will usually require a test within 72 hours of travel to your destination. Please check your airline and country of destination details to confirm. Travelling under 36 hours? Don’t panic we may still be able to help you.
Rapid test
We also offer an affordable RAPID COVID-19 ANTIGEN TEST. The test result is available in 15 minutes. It is a rapid immunochromatographic assay to detect nucleocapsid protein of SARS-CoV-2 virus in swab specimens. If the extracted specimen contains SARS-CoV-2 viral antigens, the antigens will form the antigen-antibody complex with anti-SARS-CoV-2 to form visible result bands. We provide written confirmation of the result, explaining its interpretation and any follow on actions.
