There are many different reasons why you may want to have a COVID-19 swab test. Maybe you’re traveling abroad, you need a test for work or you’re attending a social event. Our In-store COVID-19 Testing Service (RT-PCR) is a convenient way to get a nose and throat swab PCR test to check for a current COVID-19 infection.
Our service normally has a turnaround of 48 hours, however due to new innovative testing, we are able to provide say day or 12-hour test results for people of urgent need. Call to book an appointment, with same day available. Once your results have been processed you’ll get an email to let you know your results are ready to view, and whether negative or positive, you'll be able to download your results certificate.

Our certificate is certified fit-to-fly and we have had 1000s of patients use this service this year. NL Clinic will not be liable for any spelling mistakes as this form is filled in by yourself, we will also not be liable for the time of test on the certificate with regards to country entry requirement, this should be calculated by yourself.

Who is this service suitable for?
The In-store COVID-19 Testing Service (PCR) is suitable for adults and children of any age.
