How it works

In-person Appointment

We realise that some of our customers would want to visit in person for this test. We currently have one location where you can do this: 144 Penn Road Wolverhampton WV3 0EE. You simply choose this package, search the calendar for an appointment, book and pay for the appointment to attend in person, and visit the site to perform your test. Please note that this test is a PCR test. Our admin team will be there to provide you with telephonic support but they are not clinical. If you need to see a clinician, then you need to book a separate appointment. We aim to deliver your result within 24 hours of your sample being received in our laboratory, though in some cases it may take longer.

Home Test Kit

1. Purchasing Your Test On Our Website

You should keep up to date with any travel guide of the country you are travelling to/from.

Please note

You should not contact the lab looking for your results as they will not be able to help you. All customer inquiries should come through to our Customer Services.

a. Order your self-collection swab kit to your address:

  • Place your order no later than 2 PM and at least two working days before you require your swab sample to be performed. This will allow the delivery of the swab kit to your address on time. If you place your order prior to 2 PM Monday – Friday, your order will be dispatched on the same day and delivered to you the following day. If it has not been received in the expected timeframe, please contact 03455652081. Orders placed after 2 PM on Friday or over the weekend will be dispatched on Monday and delivered to you on Tuesday.
  • Even though you can order next day delivery, we strongly advise ordering your swab well in advance so that you can familiarize yourself with the instructions and have it ready for the day you want to collect your sample.
  • If you do not receive your swab kit by 4 PM on the expected day of delivery, then please get in touch with us at 03455652081.
  • When sending your test sample to the laboratory, please take note of the Royal Mail tracking number underneath the barcode on your postage sticker. You can use this to track your parcel’s delivery to the laboratory.

b. Receive your swab collection kit through the post

  • This will be delivered by Royal Mail Special Delivery. A signature may be required.
  • Your kit consists of a swab, a sample tube containing transport medium, a laboratory instructions sheet, a clear sealable bag, and a transport box.
  • Your kit will come with a return address; the transport box is postage paid and will be used to post your sample back to the lab.

2. Taking Your Home Sample

Your kit will include a simple sample collection device with comprehensive instructions on how to take your sample in just a few minutes. Once you have correctly taken your sample, simply follow the instructions and return the sample to our lab using the pre-paid postage box included in the test kit.

Please note that you must ‘register’ your test kit when you take the sample to capture your date of birth, gender, the kit reference number, and the date and time at which you have taken the sample – these are the details that will show on your certificate.

3. Returning Your Test Via Royal Mail or FedEx

Based on your purchase, you may end up either using the Royal Mail or FedEx to transport your test sample. Whichever service you use, please find out what it offers and take advantage of any special arrangements that may benefit you. A good example is the Royal Mail Priority Boxes which allow your sample to reach the lab in 24 hours.

Please note that the postal service is not suitable for those with a Saturday or Sunday test date as your test will not be processed until Monday.

Very Important - the FedEx return label, if used for collection on a Friday, delivery to the lab will be done on Monday or next working day after Monday. If you need a Friday collection for Saturday delivery to the lab, please contact us (Call us 03455652081 or email us on [email protected]) on the Friday before 11am so that a new return label can be emailed to you. You can then take a copy and paste it over the return label already provided.

4. Getting Your Results

In general, once your test arrives at our lab facility, you should have the result emailed to you within 1-2 working days, though it can sometimes take longer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the PCR COVID-19 test involve?

The COVID-19 PCR test kit requires a sample to be collected and sent back to our accredited UK laboratory for testing. The test kit that we send you has full instructions that are easy to follow. It contains a sterile kit for collecting a sample. You then send the sample to our lab in the postage-paid envelope.

Are delivery costs included in the PCR COVID-19 test prices?

All delivery charges are included in the test prices. If you use a postal test, the kit comes with a postage-paid packet for the return of your sample.

What proof of results is provided?

Following the release of your results, an official lab report will be emailed to you on the email you used to purchase the package.

This report will contain the details of the test performed, including:

  • Infectious disease tested
  • Testing date
  • Results summary
  • Test provider

How long does it take for me to get results?

We aim to deliver your result within 24 hours of your sample being received in our laboratory. Due to the current global circumstances, minor delays may occur. We are making every effort to ensure that results are delivered on time. An official lab report will be made available to you, to serve as proof of your result.

What should I do if my COVID-19 PCR swab test is positive?

If you receive a positive result you should remain in self-isolation, and inform your healthcare provider of your result. You should follow the national guidelines (GOV.UK: coronavirus – guidance and support) https://www.gov.uk/coronavirus

If you develop emergency warning signs for COVID-19, get medical attention immediately. Emergency warning signs include*:

Difficulty breathing or shortness of breath

Persistent pain or pressure in the chest

New confusion or inability to arouse

Bluish lips or face

*This list is not all-inclusive. Please consult your medical provider for any other symptoms that are severe or concerning.

For more information go to the NHS COVID-19 website. Do not visit a health centre such as a hospital, clinic, GP surgery, or pharmacy unless instructed.

What should I do if my COVID-19 PCR swab test is negative?

A negative PCR test means that you were not infected with COVID-19 when you took the test. If you have no symptoms, you can continue to stay safe. If you have planned to travel, continue with your plans as normal. If you require the approved fit-to-fly certificate, please ensure you have booked for the correct service and purchased the right package.

What is a COVID-19 travel certificate?

Upon arrival, some countries may require a recent COVID-19 test result as a travel certificate. Failure to provide the test result may deny you entry into the country. A COVID-19 travel certificate is an official document detailing the results of a recent COVID-19 swab test (also known as a COVID-19 PCR test). These tests detect if you have the virus (they cannot tell if you were previously infected). Test certificates are designed to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. They help ensure that only travellers unlikely to be carrying the virus enter the country. To find out which countries require a test result certificate on arrival, please visit the foreign travel advice page.
