How to do a Covid Test at Home

When your test kit arrives, please ensure your test kit has not been damaged and you have all tests you require. For a PCR test, you should do this within 72 hours before you travel and at Klarity we recommend that you perform the swab test as early on as possible within that time frame. A rapid antigen test (lateral flow test) is required to be done within 48 hours before you travel, these are quick rapid tests and therefore you can choose the time that suits you as you do not send this test off to a laboratory to get your test results and certificate.

Before you collect your test sample, wash your hands with soap and water or by using an alcohol-based gel. Then blow your nose into a tissue to get rid of any nasal discharge, this is to ensure you produce a valid test result.

You can do your appointment in the comfort of your home or travel accommodation using your phone, computer, or other devices that have an internet connection, you do not need to visit a testing clinic or doctor. 

If you have purchased a test without an appointment with a healthcare professional, please log in to your Klarity app and follow the step-by-step instructions on what to do. A PCR test requires you to self-swab both nostrils using the sterile swab that was sent to you. Once you have taken your swab sample, please enter the information that is asked in the Klarity app, we need this information to produce your test results and a fit-to-fly certificate. After you have completed the steps in the app, pack your test kit in the prepaid postal box that was sent with your test kit. On the front of the prepaid postal box under the barcode you will see a royal mail tracking number that ends in GB, please note this down so you can track your package to our lab. As soon as you have packed your test kit please post this by using the nearest royal mail priority mailbox located to you. For a rapid antigen test, you will need to follow the step-by-step instructions on the Klarity app, depending on the test package you purchase you either will need to self-record yourself doing the test or attend an appointment with one of our healthcare professionals. Rapid antigen tests are quick and easy tests that only take a few minutes to do and produce test results within 15 minutes.

How Long Does a Home Covid Test Take

Both a PCR test and a rapid antigen test only take a few minutes to collect your sample. These tests are both self-tests, which require you to take a swab sample using the sterile swab stick which has a cotton bud tip. After following the initial steps of washing your hands with soap and water (or by using an alcohol-based gel), blowing your nose into a tissue to get rid of any nasal discharge, and watching our video tutorial you can start your test. 

How Long for the Results?

A PCR test takes up to 24 hours to get results once your test sample has reached our laboratory. Please note that once you perform your test you will need to send this back to our laboratory which can take up to 24 hours to arrive at our lab. 

Rapid antigen tests once you have completed the test you will get test results within 15 minutes. This test is similar to a pregnancy test. 

Test results and fit to fly covid 19 certificates will be sent as a PDF via email and will also be uploaded to your Klarity app.
