Why do I need a PCR test?
As a result of the Government’s ever-changing regulations, we recommend checking the Foreign Office website ahead of your travel for up-to-date advice. We also advise that you visit us in-store to purchase your kit in plenty of time. This gives you the opportunity to complete the test, and receive your results, in time for your flight.
If you are unfamiliar with the requirements, we have included clarification below:
Red List
You should not travel to these territories or countries. If you are arriving into the UK from a red list country, you are required to take a PCR test beforehand, as well as booking your quarantine hotel package. This is where you will complete your mandatory isolation period upon your return. You are also required to book two Covid PCR tests, to be taken on day 2 and day 8 of your isolation; you must also fill out a passenger locator form. This is regardless of your vaccination status.
Green List
If you are looking to go on your holidays, you are permitted to travel to countries on the green list. As of 4am on Tuesday the 7th of December, before you travel back to the UK, you must take a Covid PCR test, regardless of your vaccination status. You should also book your day 2 test in advance. You are also required to fill out a passenger locator form; you must isolate until you get a negative result.
If you are not fully vaccinated, you must take both a day 2 & 8 test and fill out a passenger locator form. You are also required to isolate for the full 10 days, even if your results come back negative.
We offer day 2 PCR testing; you can find out more and book your test here:
Omicron Guidance
Due to the omicron variant, if you come into contact with a suspected or confirmed Omicron case, you must isolate for 10 days, regardless of your results or vaccination status. You can find more information here.

Our Covid PCR Test
This test is a home testing kit; it is carried out during the 72 hour window before you are due to travel. You will complete the swab test yourself. Do not worry, as instructions will be available within the kit. We have also included the video above for further guidance. The test involves swabbing both tonsils, or where they would normally be, as well as one nostril. Once your test is complete, your swab should be returned to the lab for analysis. You will then receive your results, along with your Fit to Fly certificate, via email within 24 hours of the lab receiving it. You should make sure to book your test in plenty of time to allow for delays in postage etc.
