What Tests Do I Need Before Jetting Off?

If you are not vaccinated yet, you’ll need to do a negative Covid-19 Rapid Antigen or a PCR (polymerase chain reaction) test before travelling abroad. For some countries, those who are fully vaccinated will also need to take a test to show that they don’t have the infection. These requirements keep changing from time to time. That’s why it’s vital to check for updated information on entry requirements for your country of destination in advance.

A number of destinations that need pre-travel testing only accept PCR tests. Even though there are exceptions, it’s almost always possible that any destination that needs proof of a negative Covid test requires that you do a PCR test. It’s important not to confuse PCR tests with antibody blood tests. The latter is used to reveal if you’ve previously contracted Covid-19.

What Is A COVID Fit To Fly Certificate?

A Fit to Fly test can simply be defined as a signed and stamped letter that shows you’ve had a Covid swab test, do not have Covid-19 symptoms, and are fit to fly. The stamp should be from an accredited test provider (with the Care Quality Commission) with a registered doctor or pharmacist’s signature. To remain valid, this test requires that a swab be taken of your nose and throat at our clinic and sent to one of our approved laboratories to be tested. It’s worth noting that not every destination needs a Fit to Fly certificate. Some may only need a report from a certified laboratory.
