COVID-19 PCR Testing Service

If you’re flying abroad, please check the COVID test requirements specified by your destination of travel and/or airline carrier before ordering a test.

Some airlines require the test to be taken between 48 hours and 96 hours of departure. The information can be verified by contacting your airline.

All fit to fly certificates come with security enabled QR codes for easy verification by airlines, airports and third parties.

Please use this form if you want to order a test kit in advance of your travel date.


    This is usually specified by your airline/country of arrival

    A COVID-19 polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test checks to see if the COVID-19 virus is currently in your body. It works by detecting the genetic material in the virus called RNA. When your swab sample reaches the lab, a solution known as a ‘reagent’ is added to it. If the virus is in the sample, the reagent starts a ‘chain reaction’. This reaction creates billions of copies of the viral genetic material, so there’s enough for it to be detected and analysed by scientists.

    What are the differences between PCR, LAMP and Lateral Flow?

    PCR test is the gold standard in COVID-19 testing and is the test used by the NHS. It offers the most accurate results as it can detect even the smallest amount of virus. This means that a negative PCR test result provides the most reliable indication you can safely continue to work and travel.

    LAMP test is also analysed in a laboratory but the test is less accurate and sensitive. Therefore, it may give a negative result to people who have a small amount of virus present. A negative LAMP test provides you with some protection, but not as much as a PCR test.

    Lateral flow/RAT Rapid Antigen is an established technology, adapted to detect antigens that are present when a person has COVID-19. The best-known example of a lateral flow test is the home pregnancy test kit.

    The test kit is a hand-held device with an absorbent pad at one end and a reading window at the other. Inside the device is a strip of test paper that changes colour in the presence of COVID-19 antigens.

    A negative result means that active coronavirus infection was not detected, at the time of the test. However, this does not guarantee that you do not have coronavirus. It is not analysed in a laboratory, unlike the PCR or LAMP tests.

    Possible Results

    Positive (SARS-CoV-2 Detected): in this case, the presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA has been detected in the sample.

    Negative (SARS-CoV-2 Not Detected): in this case, the presence of SARS-Cov-2 RNA has not been detected in the sample.

    Retest (A valid result could not be generated from the sample provided): in this case, we have been unable to obtain a valid test result and a new swab sample should be taken and submitted for an additional test. A ‘retest’ result could indicate a failure in the sampling process, or the presence of inhibitors that prevent successful detection of viral RNA. A new order for a test should be placed to allow for a retest, please ensure you follow the sample instructions carefully to reduce this risk.
