Take them With you  from the UK. 29quid   you send the results back online the they email you the cert.  How trusting is that lol

The problem is that I don’t live in the UK , I only transit through it !!!!

I live in Guernsey and it’s the airlines that need the negative test !!!!

Yes I'm afraid we still do, Jab or No Jab.  whilst they recommend PCR it's only a recommendation, and antigen tests are still accepted.

And a passenger locator form for the Uk  you will need the reference number from your Day 2/8 PCR purchase which goes on the locator Form and is confirmed by GOV.UK online.

Day two testing is £69-£99  if jabbed and £129 for 2&8 day testing if not jabbed. and if no Jab you still have to stay at home to quarantine for 10 days. OMG will it ever end.

Hello there , I need a Covid test or lateral test before I fly back to the UK ( I have not even arrived there yet)!. I’m so confused as to which is needed as there is a lot of difference on price !!

Can anyone advise please ?

Hello, 

If you go to EasyJet sight and get the code for discount for Randox ( you don’t even have to fly with them ) you can order the day 2 test for £44 each instead of £49. They will be delivered to your door before you leave for holiday. In Mojacar as mentioned above under the chemist will do it for €50 test results in an hour. The day 2 can then be done at home when you are back in the uk. Remember to print the email of the order code for you day 2 test before you leave for Spain. Once you have done the test you can mail it back to them or take to a Randox drop off bin near you which the info would be on their site. Also you can download the SpTH app to fill your locator form for Spain free. Hope this helps 👍

Hi,

There is no need to book, just turn up with your €50 and passport and they will do the test there and then and you collect the results in 25 minutes, as a paper document with their officials stamp on it.

Good luck
