Which Coronavirus test are accepted by airlines?

Molecular (PCR) tests are typically accepted by airlines, but more and more frequently are also accepted antigen test results. Usually, it is required that the test has not been done before 48 hours from the date of the flight. For more details, we recommend you check with your airline and the official information of the destination country. The result must be available even for international travel, in English and/or in the country's language where you are going.

Can I take a Coronavirus test at an Italian airport before my departure?

Some airports can make a molecular or rapid test to detect the Coronavirus infection. If the airport from you are travelling does not have this option, you must carry out a test in the city where you are staying before going to the airport. On faiuntestevai.it offers you the chance to find a centre to carry out a test before departure, it reports both centres available directly at airports and those closest in adjacent cities.

How long it takes to get the result of a PCR test?

Some PCR test to detect the Coronavirus infection may require only a few hours to produce results if samples are tested on-site, or it may take a few days if the samples are sent elsewhere for testing. On average, you can expect to receive the results of an RT-PCR test within 2-5 days. On faiuntestevai.it we try to provide guidance on timelines that each laboratory and pharmacy offers.
